Great to see the whitethroat back on its favourite bramble bush in Langley moor, wiveliscombe. A little earlier this year - First seen 8th April (19th April 2025 and 18th April 2024) @somersetbirds@bto_somerset1
Chiff chaff signing away in Langley moor, wiveliscombe this morning. Also singing were willow warblers and blackcaps. Expectng whitethroats to return any day. Resident Cettis have gone quiet. Last year grasshopper, reed and sedge were all heard from the same spot @somersetbirds
Lots of birds singing on Langley Moor, Wiveliscombe today. Highlights were willow warbler, blackcap, chiff chafs greenfinches, nuthatch, green and great spotted woodpeckers and Jay. Also tufted duck and little grebe on higher grants farm pond @somersetbirds
Black redstart at brean down Saturday morning at high tide. Feeding on the rocks in the corner underneath the cliffs. Watched it for half an hour as it fended off a Robin. Stonechat, Rock Pipit and Wren! @somersetbirds
Need some ID help please. Saw this wader at Stolford on 12th August. Looked slightly bigger than a dunlin. Could this be a pectoral sandpiper or is this a common sandpiper? Thanks @somersetbirds
Lovely close views of a Ruff at Ryan's Field, Hayle this morning. Walked into the hide and in less than a minute had seen a spoonbill, a kingfisher and a firecrest @CBWPS1
