A few of the many photos taken of the confiding Snow Bunting on North Hill this morning, well worth the hike! #WorcsBirds

@brianstretch.bsky.socialThe first-winter female Snow Bunting was still favouring the summit of North Hill #MalvernHills this morning.
Also an adult male Wheatear on North Hill, Brambling over Worcestershire Beacon and a few Redwings, Redpolls & Siskins through Happy Valley.

@northsidedan.bsky.socialFantastic to lose 45 minutes in the company of the North Hill Snow Bunting this afternoon. A lovely bird which was busy feeding around the summit the whole time. I just sat and watched. Cheers to @brianstretch.bsky.social #MalvernHills #WorcsBirds

@peteandmarjo.bsky.socialSnow Bunting still at top of North Hill at 15.25 #Worcsbirds
@brianstretch.bsky.socialWith a brisk north-westerly wind continuing for a second day I was hopeful of finding a Snow Bunting on the #MalvernHills.
Et voilà! This beauty was favouring the summit of North Hill.
Also my first Bramblings, Redwings, Redpolls & Siskins of the autumn through Happy Valley.
@brianstretch.bsky.socialTwo Wheatear on North Hill #MalvernHills late this afternoon; the bird present on Sunday remains and has been joined by a paler individual.
@birdersstore.bsky.socialEurasian Stone-curlew is a rare visitor to our home county of #Worcestershire.
So when one turned up near Upton upon Severn, it generated plenty of interest amongst local #birders.

@philmfan100.bsky.social2 of the 3 Whoopers #UptonWarren Moors pool this morning. Harassed by Mute Swans initially but eventually settled after flying a few tines. #WorcsBirds

@andypitt.bsky.socialA Knot (presumed juv) dropped in at #uptonwarren Flashes this morning. A rare bird here these days - only the 3rd I've seen in 22 years of visiting the reserve. 2 Green Sands, 6 Curlew & 3 Stonechat were other highlights, and an Avocet was reported for a 2nd day at the Moors Pool. #WorcsBirds
@brianstretch.bsky.socialThe Eurasian Stone-curlew still at Ryall Court Pits, Upton-upon-Severn this morning.
Distant views but thanks to the power of a Nikon P1000 and some AI sharpening, the photographic results were better!
Also 11 Golden Plover over, Dunlin, Green Sandpiper & Pintail.
@ianboden.bsky.social#WorcsBirds third time lucky for Stone-curlew at Ryall Pits (11.15am). Thanks to kind assistance of a photographer. Very well camouflaged in rock pools to right of channel.
@simonwest26.bsky.socialStone-curlew still present this morning (10.30a.m) Ryall Court Pits at south end, viewed from Fish Meadow. Many thanks to the birder on site for the scope views! #WorcsBirds #ukbirds #ukbirding @btoengland.bsky.social @britishbirds.bsky.social
@brianstretch.bsky.socialThis Wheatear in Chat Valley, North Hill #MalvernHills this morning was a new arrival.
