Black tern (Chlidonias niger) – From the Instagram archive… These shots of my lifer black tern aren’t great, but I was lucky enough to get a photo of the parent swooping in to feed the young one!

Nicole - I am trying to re-home my beloved bird books (orni, birding & birds, conservation). If I send you a spreadsheet would you be wiling to circulate it to your students and colleagues?

Caught this ruddy-breasted #seedeater mid-crunch in #Colombia, looking like he just dropped the hottest mixtape of the grasslands. Small bird with a big confidence!

I had some fun with a Pileated Woodpecker yesterday. With the warmer weather, the insects have been more active...bringing out the woodpeckers more.

Sad to learn yesterday that Marj Cunningham passed away on Friday after a difficult couple of years. One of the long term characters of East Yorkshire birding, as interested in birders as birds. Condolences to Peter and her other relatives. #YorkshireBirding
