Grasshopper warbler reported on Bradford birders blog well within running distance of home. We’re off out shortly on gropper patrol

Cootlets should be renamed cutelets. One of my favourite young birds

Watched a Blue Tit feeding a chick on my bird feeders and was fab to see lots of Blackbirds looking for food on my walk this morning.

Beautiful run up the north east coast this morning. Spotted all sorts. Razorbills, oystercatchers, kittiwakes on nests on a cliff, sand Martin's, mistle thrush, goldfinches, buzzards. Some of the others in the other group further back spotted dolphins.

Moorhenlets are even cuter
Often driving through the Crags with the deliveries I'm doing at the moment, and always tempted to stop. Might have to make the effort at some point

We have them in the field opposite me. They were singing away this evening when I was out for a walk. I also heard a curlew, some snipe drumming and what I think are the long eared owl chicks. I did get a recording of some of it, but the warblers are not loud enough for the iPod mic to pick them up.
