GADDESDEN ROW MEGA! I just found a wryneck!! #hertsbirds

@Berkobirder43 Get an air rifle

Poxy cats , another house sparrow gone because of them 😡😡😡

Cuckoo calling in my local woods this morning , also Firecrest and Willow Warblers #hertsbirds

@Berkobirder43 Been up there few times this year , always food birding

@moreton_george Lovely pics . We were there Saturday didn’t get nightingale but heard bittern booming 😁

A close encounter with a Turtle Dove in nearby Bedfordshire this morning, also singing Nightingale, Cuckoo and Bittern

Cuckoo calling from my garden at dusk for the 3rd night in a row #hertsbirds

@GlenOrioleglen @cleanupbritain Because our government have important hundreds of thousands of people from the 3rd world

@cleanupbritain That’s great to see. I’ve just got back from a week in Northern Spain and the Pyrenees…and no rubbish on the streets, no fly-tipping, no dog-mess. Collection points for recycling everywhere. Why do we live in what’s becoming a Third World Country? 🤷🏻‍♂️😡

Why don't we do this in Britain? We could dig trenches across every housing estate in Britain and install these underground waste units that only need a two-man operation to empty. Simple, efficient, and clean. No more overflowing bins and bags cluttering the streets.

@sh4rpy @Hertsbirder @JamesReader69 Couldn't believe it when I spotted it sat so close to the path , good to see you and David

Turtle Doves were quite elusive until @moreton_george took charge of the situation @Hertsbirder @JamesReader69

Lots of warblers at Great Gaddesden this morning including 2 singing Sedge. I was also surprised to find a very late Stonechat #hertsbirds

What a day , had already decided to spend the morning at Swiss gardens before twitching the 11 Dotterel in Cambridgeshire, made it down to the Ross's Gull just in time , 15 minutes after I arrived it flew off into the distance

@Baldbirder1 @Bucktonbirder @LeeEvansBirding @RareBirdAlertUK @CambsBirdClub Where's best to park to walk to see the birds ?

9x Dotterel at 7am today in the nice little village of Gamlingay, Cambs (where I was brung up as a child). Lovely birds to connect with. Good to year-tick the finder @Bucktonbirder! @LeeEvansBirding @RareBirdAlertUK @CambsBirdClub #birding

Over 80 species seen locally in Hertfordshire this weekend for the Herts local patch big weekend with @ianbennell75 and @moreton_birding , great fun and over 15 miles walked #hertsbirds

Fantastic morning at Otmoor. The American Golden Plover showed well , as did the Bitterns , several Cuckoo and Grasshopper warbler. Found a Redstart between the 2 screens. My favourite place to go birding in spring!

@Briansbirding Nice one, is it viewable anywhere for birders without a permit?

Successfully twitched the Red-rumpled Swallow on the home patch this afternoon. Patch ✅ Essex ✅🥳 (thanks to finder) also lots of House Martin for a year ✅. At least 5 Yellow wagtails and a White Wag.

@sh4rpy @JamesReader69 Yeh saw Ian and had a catch up just before we left

@moreton_george @JamesReader69 shame i missed you i saw your post and wondered why i hadn't seen you did see Ian B

Willow Warbler at College Lake today @JamesReader69

@Briansbirding Love these pics mate

Was photographing this Wheatear at KGV this morning when I missed the distant Osprey go over 🤦‍♂️ (only my second Wheatear there this year)

The Lesser Scaup showed right in front of the Fitter hide at @college_lake today , a very smart bird, he was trying his luck with a female Tufted Duck.

Last day in Mallorca , we walked along the coast from Betlem followed by a swim in the sea whilst Vultures drifted over and Crossbills called from surrounding trees.

@sferguk Yeh was great birding

@moreton_george Very nice....

Balearic Warbler showed very well in the Boquer Valley this morning, also 3 Booted Eagle , 4 Black Vulture , 4 Griffon Vulture, Blue Rock Thrush also countless Black Redstart and Sardinan Warbler
