Female and male Common Pheasants near Woolland, Dorset, 03/10/26. 🪶 #ukbirding #birdphotography #eck
First birds of my day: a charm of fifteen Goldfinch twittering gaily as they flew around the treetop opposite, while a pair of Rook raucously passed on their way overhead.
(I have seen Skylark and Meadow Pipit on Port Meadow this morning - among many other birbs!)
Juvenile Pallid Harrier at Belmont attracting quite the crowd this morning. #ukbirding #birds
A very Autumnal photo of a Long Tailed Tit. Taken yesterday near Woolland, Dorset. 03/10/26. 🪶 #ukbirding #birdphotography #eck
Still time to get your lucky birding t-shirt for autumn, plus it's FREEPOST on all UK orders this weekend. How high are you aiming? Order before midnight Sunday #UKBirding #BirdArt
First Redwing of the Autumn in the park (Woodhouse Moor). Hopefully lots more to come.
But no Spotted flycatcher and likely none this year now we're into October - records only on Aug/Sept other years (grey bars on the graph).
31 spp for the week of birding in the city.

Fancy a piece of this?
A greylag goose, seemingly very pleased with the recent work it’s put in at the gym

Good Morning Bluesky Folks!
My first capture features a photograph of Two House Sparrows that I photographed in a hedge on my iPhone 17 Pro!

#Scilly magic - Short-toed lark and Lapland Bunting hanging out at Penninis, St. Mary's yesterday with @aravindramesh19.bsky.social @matthall95.bsky.social @oscardewhurst.bsky.social #ukbirding #birds
The probable Todd's Canada Goose I found at Slimbridge WWT last week may have been open to debate, but there was no doubting the Night Heron that flew by uttering it's gutteral call at Ham Wall 2 days later. A quartet of Glossy Ibis showed particularly well from Avalon hide #ukbirding
OCTOBER 4th: 🧾
Good morning folks...! 🖐🏻👋🏻
Please find today's listings here....!
We’ve had a good run of scarce waders in Oxon recently. The latest is this Pectoral Sandpiper at the Oxfordshire Golf Club near Thame. Neat little bird that can be very close in if there are less than competent golfers around that keep mis-hitting balls at it! #ukbirding
Juvenile Sora at Porth Hellick Pool, St Mary's, Isles of Scilly. 3/10/26. #rarebirdsuk #ukbirding @ukraritiesdaybyday.bsky.social
Another Owl this evening @dungenessbirdobs.bsky.social this time a Long Eared Owl trapped in the trapping area by Jacob & Charlotte. I’d only just posted the previous picture, when Jacob put out news of the LEO.
Big thanks again to everyone at the Obs.
We totally lucked out on our Scilly day trip today - and not just with the weather! The Sora Rail showed perfectly as soon as we'd squeezed into the hide at Porth Hellick. The crossings were productive too, with 30+ Grey Phal, 50+ Euros, loads of Common Dolphin & 1 Risso. #ukbirding #rarebirdsuk
The Yellow Wagtail at Cley this pm. Superficially striking in its grey & white plumage, was its back a little too brown & the face pattern a little soft for Eastern? All its flight calls sounded Western & the odd more buzzy note was often in alarm. My sonograms seem to bear this out. #UKBirding
Late this Evening at @dungenessbirdobs.bsky.social the Short Eared Owl trapped in the trapping area and ringed at the Observatory. Well done to Jacob & Charlotte.
Also a Big thanks to Jacob for alerting the locals.
