Sooty shearwater off Portland Bill 1140-1220 at least, mostly sat on the sea at long range, almost impossible to pick up if you don’t know it’s there. But originally picked up flying around at medium range. Lots of Manx and Balearic milling around too, some showing quite well

Dire wolves remain very extinct
Despite what you are being fed, de-extinction is a con, full of gloss, bullshit and ghoulish greed.

Found this interesting looking Wagtail in a flock of ca. 60 White Wagtails today at Pareyer Luch, Eastern Germany. It showed a complete eye stripe on both side of head and looks quite promising to be an East Siberian Wagtail (ocularis).

Just on the slim chance that anyone is aware of anyone magically acquiring a new pair of binoculars or you see them offered for sale .... my Leica Ultravid 10 x 42 binoculars were stolen from a hide at WWT Slimbridge on 11 December. The serial number is 1593393. #BirdingGear

Hello. First post on here, so I will make sure that it is as unexceptional as possible so as not to raise expectations for the future. Great northern diver and 2 pale-bellied brents at ferrybridge this morning. Big flock of sand martins at radipole this afternoon. Winter and summer in one day
