I’m looking for a birder who might join me for a Zoom call on Thursday eve to talk with a small group about the joys of watching a local patch… ideally someone outside SE England... I can offer a small fee or donation to charity for the time. Anyone interested please get in touch and we can chat.

15 species this morning on my birding walk with small fry. hampered by not going able to stand still for more than 5seconds and the places I can walk with the buggy.

Still, added great black-backed gull to 2023 list for 31spp. on patch.

Confined to the sofa with lurgy (not Covid, according to two lateral flows, just bog-standard cough and cold misery) so here's the resident Grey Heron at the flood storage area near my parents' house, surveying its domain a few days ago.

On Christmas Eve we took a speculative look at Glynleigh Level, a lesser-watched corner of the Pevensey Levels. So glad we did. At least 1250 Lapwing in the air at once, perhaps 2000. 25 Golden Plover, Green Sand, 2 Egyptian Geese, 13 Shoveler, 33 Teal, 3 Little Egrets, Water Rail and a Roe Deer. Well worth the wellie wading.

So I have no idea of what I’m doing yet, or how to follow/find other birders on here, so if you recognise me give me a follow. Sadly it’ll all be new and naff pics as usual :ablobattention:

One of two Dartford warblers found over the weekend at East Tilbury, looks like they have had another good breeding season.

Nice morning walk to blow away the cobwebs. Always nice to see the Grey Wagtails bobbing in the stream.
