Filey Bird Observatory

The pair of Garganey at Filey Dams this evening finally obliged us with views 😊

One of the lovely Snow Buntings that spent a few days at Filey Brigg in the recent cold weather...

Looking at me, looking at you... Woodcock on Carr Naze, Filey this morning (it had shuffled round when I looked again on my return walk) and three of eight Snow Buntings - 07-01-2025 @FileyBirdObs @nybirdnews

Mediterranean Gull at a snowy Filey CP this afternoon.

Pleased to finally get chance to catch up with the Filey Eastern Black Redstart, which really did show well in the morning sun @FileyBirdObs @BirdGuides @RSPBEngland @RSPBbirders

Nice to catch up with the Eastern Black Redstart and @JohnHarwood30 at Filey this afternoon! @nybirdnews

There are some great photos of the Eastern Black Redstart which has reappeared @FileyBirdObs and then there’s mine. Having missed the bird by seconds at Scarborough and then got thoroughly wet through, how could I resist a day out at Filey in the sunshine. @nybirdnews

Thirty seven Sanderling set against a silver sea in the bay corner @FileyBirdObs today; passing swiftly by me and disappearing into the low winter sun. Gone as quickly as they arrived. @nybirdnews

Eastern black redstart, Filey. Showing well at Bay Corner, Filey Brigg at noon. After a wet dip in Scarborough last week, bird kind enough to work its way towards me today. Thanks to original finder, a beauty. @nybirdnews @FileyBirdObs @teesbirds1 @BirdGuides @RareBirdAlertUK

Superb views of the Eastern Black Redstart this afternoon at Filey. Thanks to @sandgrouse01 for the beach 🏝️ ↔️directions. Backed up by a long awaited lifer, Red-throated Diver ✅ @Natures_Voice @FileyBirdObs @Britnatureguide #birds #ukbirds #birdwatching #wildlifephotography

Eastern Black Redstart at Filey this morning (presumably the Scarborough bird from last week) first seen at Filey on 3rd... @nybirdnews @BirdGuides @RareBirdAlertUK

Great day out on the Yorkshire coast this morning @nybirdnews @teesbirds1

The lovely Eastern Black Redstart showed well near Filey Brigg today @FileyBirdObs

Managed to get a couple of hours birding while visit family in Hull. Eastern Black Redstart showed well at Filey this morning digiscoped with kowa884 using iphone16Pro and vario adapter.

Eastern Black Redstart at Filey Brigg today

A rewarding couple of hours @FileyBirdObs earlier today in spite of the bracing NW wind & the odd icy shower. Three confiding Snow Buntings on Carr Naze, a Red-necked Grebe, two Great Northern Divers & a single Little Auk all on the sea, bay side of The Brigg. @nybirdnews

Carr Naze, Filey seems to be a regular spot for Snow Buntings - this bird was wonderfully obliging before too many people arrived!
