Derwent Valley Birder: Bittern
http://daven-belperbirdersblog.blogspot.com/2015/02/bittern.html
Thursday, 26 February 2015. Still no Barn Owl and it's been over a week now since it's been seen. A sure sign that spring is almost upon us is the fact there was only 1 Goosander that came into roost. Although there was 23 Tufties. A number I have had several times recently. An impressive 18 Gadwall were spread around the pools which shows the importance of Wyver for this species. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Adventures in an empty corner.

Thursday, 29 November 2012. A Panorama of the Percuiel River on the beautiful Roseland Peninsular. I also found this Goldfinch snacking off a Teasel. Tuesday, 27 November 2012. Brown Willy from Rough Tor. If you have never been Rough Tor on a winter's late afternoon to watch the Starlings flying in to roost then you have missed a treat. It can be found outside the car park just to the right in a marsh. It must have been a very lonely spot in 1844. Wednesday, 14 November 2012. The rock pile at the entranc...

Saturday, 30 March 2013. Sadly the Common Scoter at Swanpool refused to play for me and stayed stubbornly on the far side of the pool. So it was back to Par Beach Pool where the light was good and there was a Pochard just begging to have its picture taken, several Shovelers and some amorous Swans. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Tuesday, 16 April 2013. A large number of dead sea birds have been washed up on Par Beach and other places along the South Cornwall Coast presumably as a result of the chemical discharges at sea. I, and others have been collecting them for examination by Falmouth Marine School. This morning I located bags containing some 40 birds that had been gathered yesterday. Guillemot was found alive and taken away by a lady from Tywardreath to be passed to the RSPCA. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Derwent Valley Birder: Red-throated Pipit

Monday, 4 May 2015. Within a few minutes we were on the bird.and what a bird. I always thought that if and when I do see a Red-throated Pipit it will be in autumn and will be either a juvenile or a drab adult. But this is in full summer plumage and what a smart bird it was. We watched it for a while happily feeding and totally undeterred by the increasing crowd. 4 May 2015 at 21:25. Bloody hell whats up with clive going on a twitch haha. 6 May 2015 at 12:32.
