Cetti’s Whisperer…#PugneysCanalPath

Out birding at Pugney’s…you couldn’t make it up…I’m beginning to feel like Doctor Doolittle for the birds…when a Cetti’s Warbler, sings on Queue…check out my story on Instagram @WildlifeInWakefield #RenegadeNaturalist

I believe this is a young Gannet, in this photo I’ve tried to clean up although Shearwater has been brought up?…can any birders more knowledgeable than me, confirm or deny this, please…I took this at Bempton Cliffs today, the original was very grainy until I cleaned this up…

Kittiwakes and Turnstones with a sprinkling of Rabbit and Carrion Crow #BridlingtonBirding #RenegadeNaturalist

Bridlington and Kittiwakes today…#AlwaysBirding

Left Pugneys earlier than anticipated…having a couple of things branded…new merch incoming 😉 #WildlifeInWakefield #RenegadeNaturalist

So I updated a load of photographs from today onto my dedicated Instagram account @WildlifeInWakefield unfortunately they are still grabs from my Lumix camera screen, as it’s still a struggle to get photographs moved from the memory card to the Chromebook…it’ll happen eventually

Pugneys…tomorrow and Bempton Cliffs on Saturday…

Today’s sightings at St. Aidans RSPB

More photographs from St. Aidans RSPB…better quality ones will be uploaded to my Renegade Naturalist/WildlifeInWakefield Instagram account, later on…one happy birder, today….

So reviewing my photographs from my camera today…it would seem I caught a Common Whitethroat on camera…I had a couple of conversations with other birders who mentioned this bird, I didn’t realise I’d photographed it at St. Aidan’s today 😁 check out my instagram later for more

More for my year list, more photographs will be uploaded to my dedicated Instagram account later…St. Aidans, #BeardedReedling #RenegadeNaturalist

First #SandMartins of 2026 spotted today over Westgate Beck and some spotted over Calder by Hepworth and Tile Yard…

White Wagtail? Monkton Road, Thornes near Calder…

@Wacky_Anteater Never heard of them until this year, heard them late winter and now in Spring…they look a little bigger than the average Pied Wagtail…cheers pal, thought I was bonkers

@WildlifeInWakey Pugneys is always a good spot for them in early April. Lots of them migrating currently.

White Wagtail?

Off Birding…
