The twelfth record for Shetland with five of those records coming from Fair Isle, including Britain's first in 1953. #BirdingScotland #UKbirding #RareBirdsUK #Birds #UKWildlife

@markgolley.bsky.socialWell the wait for the 1st UK/ROI Nutcracker of 2026 goes on & on whilst Europe is weighed down by them. In the meantime, here's some prime 1968 archive.
The diary notes are Richard Richardson's + a short BB piece.

@stewchat.bsky.socialOver 10 years since this White's Thrush caused a bit of a stir in #Northumberland. I was the last man to the party just before dusk and the tide ended the show. What a relief after a white knuckle drive up the A1...

@hughharrop.bsky.socialLovely views off this Arctic Warbler at Fladdabister, Shetland today in glorious Autumn sunshine. As we were watching it, we could also see two Minke Whales feeding offshore! #BirdingScotland #UKbirding #RareBirdsUK #Birds #UKWildlife

@alexhj.bsky.socialThrilled to find a patch Pectoral Sandpiper a couple of weeks ago after it dropped in out of the sky calling at sunset. This represents a second individual in almost inside a year at Rhyl on the North Wales coast. #RareBirdsUK #birding #patchbirding
@hughharrop.bsky.socialSlowly coming back down to earth after finding this Siberian Blue Robin in our garden here at Hillwell, Shetland last week. The 5th British record and only the 7th for the Western Palearctic. A Holy Grail moment for sure. #BirdingScotland #UKbirding #RareBirdsUK #Birds #UKWildlife

@jonniprice.bsky.socialJuvenile Upland Sandpiper at Woon Gumpus Common, Cornwall. 4/10/26. #rarebirdsuk #ukbirding #cornwallbirds @ukraritiesdaybyday.bsky.social
@jonniprice.bsky.socialOur luck continued for our final day in Cornwall today, when news broke of an Upland Sandpiper at nearby Woon Gumpus Common. After some searching (and rather innovative twitch tactics!) we both managed great views of this cracking little American vagrant. #ukbirding #cornwallbirds #rarebirdsuk
