Jupiter & 3 moons still bright, a Tawny Owl hoots. Two Blackbirds silhouetted against the ice blue sky.

Lots of sounds, Wren dominating, but a chacking Fieldfare overhead the 1st to show.

100s of Thrushes, of 4 species piling in, along with Bramblings, Redpolls & Chaffinches. Probably the Fieldfares first to show.

Featuring a Desertas petrel that stunned scientists by chasing a tropical storm (see their incredible chase mapped here!), tiny nightingales that cross the Sahara twice a year, and Bewick's swans that have changed their stopovers and diet

Swaro will probably replace it for free. They did for my bins.

Rook & Redwing crossing paths against the grey.

I agree. And an increasingly rare bird. A good find.

All happening here: flocks of Redwings first, Brambling dropping in, Redpolls over, and the first Fieldfares of the Autumn!

Black-crowned Pitta (Erythropitta ussheri). With birds like these you do not need a cardio workout. Your heart is already thumping away. #BirdsSeenIn2025 #Sabah #Malaysia @birdsoftheworld.bsky.social #birds #nature #wildlife
