@shamblesklutz Grey wagtail

Some mammals from Brazil in July with @WiseBirding

An unfortunately dead water shrew at Wilderness yesterday evening. Such a cool looking animal. My fourth dead one, still to see a live one.

@JohnSNadin54 @SteelySeabirder Thanks John. Was great fun.

@SimonPinder5 @SteelySeabirder Great shots, Simon & brilliant to enjoy these & other migrant birds with you. 👍

Some pics from a week on the Isle of May. With @JohnSNadin54 and @SteelySeabirder

@JohnSNadin54 @SteelySeabirder @ScottishBirding @RareBirdAlertUK Great week John. A few nice too.

A few of the many highlights from the Isle of May. 😃

Had a wonderful week on the Isle of May, my 1st visit since 2021 & the latest time of any of my previous visits. I really enjoyed the celebrations to mark the 90th year of the Bird Observatory, spending time with good pals & some great migrant birds, a few fine cetaceans too 👍

Watched this otter hunting ducks at Morton Lochs on Saturday. Caught and killed a teal. @NatureScot

@IanDearing1 Very nice

Wied's Marmoset, Serra Bonita, Brazil 🇧🇷

One for allt racists 👀 Satire in case it int obvious 🤦‍♂️

The Dutch have surrounded a group of England fans in Dortmund and started playing “Hey Jude” with them. Great to see both sets of fans enjoying the day creating a fantastic atmosphere together. 👏

Scenes at Edgbaston where India are playing Pakistan but people are watching the England game. 2 sets of rival supporters united by their love of England! #PakvsInd #ENGSUI #comeonengland #england

After an intensive fight in the #wild, yellow-throated #marten dragging its prey- #leopard_cat; martens are very agile and fearless #predators, while leopard cats are also very ferocious in defense.

@JohnSNadin54 The rat was good. Adding it to the rodents of Central Fife tour I’m planning.

@SimonPinder5 A very sweet looking rat 🐀 ❤️ Nice shots Simon.

Friday afternoon I had a bit of overtime to use up, so 30 minutes birding, saw a rat and a pochard x tufted duck hybrid, then it poured with rain. Best use of lieu time ever.

@ADuncan08859742 @TSM23 Generally after 9pm, but last night first sighting was 20:20.

@TSM23 @SimonPinder5 Yes ditto to to Tom's question.

More Birnie beaver action and some kickboxing coots this evening.

#INDIGENOUS #TAIRP @elonmusk

Nice day by the river with marsh harriers and reed warblers. Some beaver action in the evening.

@chrisrodger74 @Tringa_Ecology Any excuse for a reference to the dude I’m afraid.

@SimonPinder5 @Tringa_Ecology Ha! Very good Mr Pinder. I jumped the gun a bit there!

What better for #SuperSeabirdSunday than the sight of mass nest-building by Black-legged Kittiwake? After several weeks of occupancy at Dunbar, nest-building began in earnest in late May

Another visit to the beavers at Birnie Loch on Thursday evening and some red squirrels on Morton Lochs today.
