#JoinMeOnMyWalk from early Sunday morning & a very special visit to @rspbengland.bsky.social #LeightonMoss to see the bearded tits. Still bright weather conditions saw them visiting the grit trays early, a delightful #nature treat. #Lancashire @thephotohour.bsky.social #Birdlife #UKBirds #vitaminN

A Jack Snipe from Phil Stead hide @RSPBSaltholme one of two seen here this afternoon.

Watch a meadow pipit display and it climbs while singing then floats back down on stiff spread wings like a tiny parachute. Open moor leaves it few perches to sing from.

Tufted Duck often tuck their nests inside noisy Black-headed Gull colonies. The gulls mob anything that threatens them so ducklings hidden among them are far likelier to make it.

More chiffchaffs now skip Africa and winter here. They haunt sewage works and watercress beds where warm water keeps midges hatching all through the cold months for them to eat.

Unlike the skylark the woodlark often sings from a treetop. Sometimes it sings right through a warm summer night. Its stubby tail gives it an almost tailless look in flight.
