I can't see the original sticky so will start a new thread.  Saw nearly 30,000 knot on Breydon Water yesterday.  Great weekend at Minsmere, Otter, Kingfishers, Bitterns, lots of Marsh Harriers

I'm just looking eastwards from my window at the moment and the "Blue Moon" is swiftly rising. As there's also going to be also an eclipse it should be interesting around the world but not here...the eclipse won't be visible. wink Edit....Moulesy might see it in Costa Rica. smilesmile

See here.

Thanks for the heads up Brue, I will look out for a view.

I paid a visit to the Severn Estuary to check the Short Eared Owls out as the afternoon brightened up

Unfortunately there was little to see on the SEO front, but a very very distant Kestrel had picked up it's supper just before sunset by the second severn crossing.

Weather forecast was good for today, so we went to Leighton Moss RSPB reserve. Of course it rained, but we had a good day regardless. Great views of otters and marsh tits + all the usual suspects. Year list looking a bit healthier now 😊.

We were there on Friday last week - on the most fantastic clear and sunny day.  We saw an otter swimming, and on land, marsh tits, blue tits, great tits, chaffinch, a solitary bullfinch, two great egrets, herons, a marsh harrier - and the best murmuration of starlings that staff there had seen recently!  

We've seen a lot of birds already this year!

What a treat.......just lucky to look through window at the right moment when these Redpolls turned up, a first for my garden.

Should have said, rubbish quality photos taken through double glazing, but I'm not bothered, just lovely to have seen them.

Just watching winter watch and amazed to learn that we in the U.K. spend £200million more than all the rest of our European neighbors.
