Don't you just hate it when your camera misses focus😂😂😂

EMU

Found that my engagement on here had dropped to nearly nothing recently so decided to bin off the app for a couple of months…. But I’m back, but this time living in Western Australia!

@MikeCram5 @dm3ssag3 Should have read the tweet, well done @dm3ssag3 !

Close encounter of the Emu kind! Awesome views of this wild Emu that took an interest in the car, or what was in it?! Luckily no sign of Rod Hull, for older readers. Have a wonderful Easter Monday! Watch birds - I mean, how good?!

@MikeCram5 @dm3ssag3 Great find Mike!

Excited to be officially starting my new role as Senior Conservation Scientist with @RSPBScience this week! 🥳 I'm looking forward to spending more time working on storm petrels - the species that got me into #seabirds in the first place 🥰

Coral-billed Ground-Cuckoo!!! Outrageous views of this secretive species at Khao Yai this morning

A lovely sunny March day is ideal for Adders to be out basking. This particular male is the most reliable I've come across. I first saw him in 2019 and every year since I find him soaking up the sun under the same Gorse bush every suitable day I visit.

Can anyone recommend a very good birdwatching tour guide for a day tour of Cuc Phuong National park in Northern Vietnam. I have been burnt by bad guides on this trip so feel like I have to be extra cautious.

@MikeCram5 Pretty confident this is a tweet tweet, done! Birding completed.

Now here’s a brain scratcher, apparently 3 species of Pond heron co-occur in the Bangkok, any guesses on what this one is in Lumphini Park, anyone familiar?

@danwatsonbirder @WanderingBirder Cheers Dan!

Alright alright! Got another BOP for you Asia buffs. Struggling to separate this from changeable hawk eagle and oriental honey buzzard, am I being a complete beginner?

SEWBReC #RecordOfTheWeek today is a very urban Otter, spotted in the newly reopened Churchill Way canal in Cardiff city centre! Many thanks to Jessica Sweeney for the record & photos, submitted via sewbrecord.org.uk

Asian hawk people, can you help me out? I can’t figure out what this is, seen in Central Thailand today.

See you next year UK!

1/2 also after advice for herpetology field guides?

We are travelling to south east Asia (TH, KH, VN,MY, SG and ID) in January, does anyone have any advice for bird books (illustrated field guides), is Robson still the go to for SEA birds? What about Borneo and Indo? 1/1

An incredible treat to welcome me back to North Wales. Waxwings aplenty up at Llysfaen.
