Came across this apparent Black-Throated Diver x Great Northern Diver hybrid, whilst carrying out Black-Throated Diver surveys in the Scottish Highlands this week. It was present with three other Black-Throated Divers and a pretty striking individual!

@KesterWilsonNan Looks to be flying in front of a rockface/cliffs which the Severn estuary is lacking

Posted on Bluesky yesterday. Oldbury power station. Is it just me, but isn't this in advanced primary moult?

@JulianThomas19 I've seen Keeled Skimmer a few times up there

V productive late am visit for dragons at Waldegrave Pool, Priddy. Only 11 spp, but 3 NFYs: Common Hawker (1), Black Darte (2), and Common Emerald (lots). Also a male Keeled Skimmer - my 1st for the site and poss my 1st in Somerset. Anyone else recorded them there?

From a career that felt endless comes a legacy that will be timeless 👏

Pretty sombre sight this morning, the Brünnich's Guillemot is still in Scrabster Harbour this morning but looking a bit poorly...it did dive several times but with no real impetus.

@jamesjallison PM your email address and I'll send them over

@elyod95 Nice! It has been showing well, particularly in the morning. Would you mind sending me one of your pics of this bird? I found it on Tuesday but unfortunately have no camera with me. I can PM my email address if so.

Blyth's Reed Warbler showed better than I expected at Dornoch!

EMPTY LEDGES. First visit to North Sutor colony revealed the extreme impact bird flu, storms and rising sea temps have had on seabirds. Cormorants down by 36% to only 86 nests, shags by 60% to 60 nests and Guillemots down by a massive 83% on last year.
