A long eared owl on the way to work, flew in front of me, made a change to see one other than in silhouette.

Never seen one, Gooner! Would love to. Have heard a young one calling, but didn't actually see it.

It was one of those double take moments. Heard a few fairly often and I'm sure I've seen them in silhouette at least a dozen times but that was the first actual sight. Impressive considering yesterday's weather too!

Sparrowhawk on our steps just now. Casually sitting there like 'where all the little birdies gone' 😂

A pigeony shaped wader with a relatively short bill, that’s not purple but does have a habit of lurking in and around breaking waves. A bird often seen with turnstones in my experience

usually on green slimy rocks and generally happy to ignore the presence of people and expensive optics.

A hawthorn looking (optimistically) for water ... other than a fleeting glimpse a few days ago, never seen one here before.





Surprising what can be seen from the 'kettle' !
