Hume’s warbler breeds in the mountains of inner Asia. This warbler is migratory and winters mainly in India. So what is it doing in Compton Dando, Somerset !! A very rare bird for Uk and very pleased to see it.

A couple of hours at Tanholt, Cambs this morning with @jrmjones eventually produced three 1w Caspian gulls (would have eluded me) on north pit. Was hoping for a white-winger during the cold snap but there seems to be a national shortage of them currently #birds #ukbirds #ukrarebirds #caspiangull

Common Scoter was another addition to the PBC (Peterborough Bird Club) year list today. Present on the CEGB Reservoir, this was the first found (by local birder Chris Jones) in our recording area this year #birds #ukbirds #ukrarebirds #commonscoter

News broke late yesterday of a Red-flanked Bluetail, apparently seen on Tuesday at the unlikely inland location of Deeping Lakes in S.Lincs. More in hope than expectation, I went in search of it first thing this morning. It only went and gave itself up for me too!!! Many thanks to Tuesdays original finder #birds #ukbirds #ukrarebirds #redflankedbluetail

One of the three 1w Caspian gulls present today at Tanholt pits, Cambs #birds #ukbirds #ukbirding #ukrarebirds

Surely not long now before a white-winger graces the pits at Tanholt, Cambs. This morning, three 1w Caspian gulls were ample reward, this one showing particularly well on south pit #ukbirds #ukbirding #ukrarebirds
