Amazing find by Simon H-R! First for UK Western Reef Heron at the Foryd Bay. Looks the real deal 👍Great twitch with @owen27.bsky.social #ukbirding #welshbirds
Who uses an external mic to record bird sounds on their phone? Any gear recommendations? #UKBirding #BirdingGear
How many more years until breeding in the UK?! In my lifetime?!
It’s barely mid-June and I have nearly ripe Yellow Rattle Seed in my front mini meadow! Also epic Vipers Bugloss display! #wildflowers

Some shots taken last week of drake White-winged Scoter in Kirkcaldy (Fife). At least 2 have been present, along with singles of Black and Surf Scoter. This bird has attached itself to the local Eiders, offering some incredible views at times.

With another 35 days left to make donations there's still plenty of time to reach our second target, so hopefully we can keep going and raise even more funds to help Corncrakes in the #LDV - every penny counts and is matched very generously by Aviva @yorkbirding.bsky.social

Great to see our first review of the Birds of the #LDV in this month's Bird Watching magazine – much appreciated! If you haven’t purchased a copy yet but would still like to do so, please get in touch with us direct (via [email protected]) @yorkbirding.bsky.social
We’ve also been sent some photographs this week from #LDV volunteer David Salisbury of two pairs of Oystercatchers nesting amongst solar panels near Aughton, with records of other pairs breeding around the reserve in the surrounding area on flat roofs on industrial estates🐣

French birders are surveying possible Red-necked Nightjar habitat in southern France following a series of recent sightings of birds in the eastern Pyrenees, beyond the northern limit of its current known range:
Nice to receive this record of a colour-ringed Oystercatcher seen in the Foggathorpe area by @duncbye.bsky.social this week – originally ringed in August 2009 as a first-year in Hampshire - next seen near Barnsley (April 2012) and Goole (April 2014) - likely to be breeding in the area.

A huge thank you to everyone who has made a donation to the Friends of the #LDV Aviva community fund 🤩 The target has already been smashed, with a new stretch target in place to allow even more to be delivered for Corncrakes and other wildlife 🐦

A series of recent observations of singing Red-necked Nightjars in southern France has prompted growing suggestions that the species could be expanding its range northwards.
