A definite red letter day

Nothing like size of pro EU march. Lot of football matches in London today. Not complacent but perspective needed.

Stuart Griffiths @sgriffiths1302.bsky.social · Sep 13

Unbelievable and the other two just accepted it!!

Should add that finally here relates to this invasion - I think that these were the sixth and seventh at the reserve.

You know when people say record shot and it’s no such thing? Well not in this case, but I am so pleased that NCW finally scored Glossy Ibis today that I wanted to post this shot.

The people on site first thing were lucky to get good views of the Night Heron at North Cave Wetlands. Shortly after this it flew into vegetation and wasn’t see again up to 14:30.

Night Heron showed well this am at NCW - presumably the returning bird from last year

Stuart Griffiths @sgriffiths1302.bsky.social · Aug 19

Would think it almost certainly is last year’s bird.

Bird of the day today was this Clouded Yellow butterfly. Thanks to @northcavebirds.bsky.social

It’s been a bit quiet on the wader front at NCW so two beautiful Wood Sandpipers today were very welcome.

Stuart Griffiths @sgriffiths1302.bsky.social · Jul 9

An adult Cuckoo at NCW today. It won’t be long before these leave the country.

Two years ago avian flu ripped through our reserve, we lost many Black headed Gulls and all Mediterranean Gulls, so it’s great to see at least 7 juveniles (3 families), this year. NCW, East Yorkshire.

Breathtaking

Stuart Griffiths @sgriffiths1302.bsky.social · May 6

It was hard to catch up with Whimbrels at NCW last year so it is good that there seems to be a few birds on the reserve regularly. These two from 5/5/25

Stuart Griffiths @sgriffiths1302.bsky.social · May 4

Lots at NCW too. Warblers in general seem up - good news
