Cracking day at Snettisham today, starting with a Leucistic Oyster Catcher, then a very obliging Red Necked Phalarope. Teamed up with @mattdenial.bsky.social to find the Greater Short-toed Lark. Then nipped to see the Lesser Yellow Leg.

Had the absolute pleasure of watching @alanball101.bsky.social ringing some of the local birds at the weekend. They are a lot smaller close up.

Having seen the Pectorial Sandpiper at #rspbsnettisham last week at a distance. One popped up at #rspbfrieston, so I made my way over. Meeting @mattdenial.bsky.social on the way and we got fantastic views and perfect light and I managed this photo.

Very quiet at the minute in the trap. A couple of new visitors this time. A Garden Rose Tortrix and a Flame Carpet. That's the 3rd of each of these species.

Had an enjoyable walk around #rspbsnettisham yesterday. Managed a couple of new birds for me. Juv Turtle Dove, Green Sandpiper, a far away photo of a Pectorial Sandpiper and a Bar Tailed Godwit.

Id's as Wax moth on the app. But it's not explained very well in my book. Can't help you on this one.

Looks amazing by tge way, and in a short space of time.

yellowbellyontour.bsky.social @yellowbellyontour.bsky.social · Jul 25

I've planned to dig one this summer. Is there anything you do differently with hindsight?

Wow. That's all that needs saying.

Managed a cracking photo of a Wood Sandpiper at @rspbframptonmarsh.bsky.social. We need more rain as water levels are very low. But still plenty to look out for.

Reflecting over my year so far. I've been very lucky and feel grateful for what I've seen and new people I've met along the way.
Bring on the autumn.

They are fascinating, weird, and beautiful all at the same time.

Had an amazing time moth trapping at #Gibraltarpoint yesterday morning. Privet Hawk, and Buff Tip being my favourite. Thank you @lincswildlife.bsky.social the breakfast was amazing. Keep an eye out for the next event.
Then between the rain, managed to see my first Grasshopper Warbler.
