Before heading over to Scilly this was the highlight of a day birding in W Cornwall with M8. Showy 1CY Red-necked Phalarope at Gwithian (1 Oct), my first for quite a few years. #ukbirding #cornwallbirding

The Red-necked Phalarope at St. Gothians, Gwithian finally departed on the 6th October after ten days on site. Scores of birders took the rare opportunity to see it.

I managed to see all three phalaropes in four days with a visit to Scilly as well.

The Gwithian Red-necked Phalarope doing what it knows best. Just a fabulous tiny thing, on its way to winter off Peru; or it could even be Saudi Arabia?

I made a very rough tide clock using a BBC micro:bit and an eInk display. Updates every 5 minutes, battery-powered, fixed interval between tides of 6h 12m 30s, set by flashing code with the number of seconds between tides. Next steps: setting the tide remotely by radio! #microbit

A very confiding Red-necked Phalarope was found today at St Gothians, Gwithian by Brad Dallas.

This is approx the 37th record for Cornwall and quite a local rarity. It’s just my third for the county.

Good morning dear friends. It feels as if autumn has definitely arrived and the much needed rain. I hope the week is treating you well. Embrace kindness and love which is sorely needed to stand against the division and hate. Love to all 🙏❤️🫶

So true! And nowhere do I feel it more vividly than at Gwithian looking out at Godrevy. Thanks for sharing.
As we start a new week, please remember that status and excessive material things are imposters. Some consider them as signs of success. Yet, true success is the ability to be kind, empathetic, and the willingness to accept you can be wrong. Be open minded on all things and hungry to learn. 😊
