We don't encounter many Grasshopper warblers, so one caught yesterday @OverburyEnt already ringed was a great surprise, the bird was originally ringed in 2022 in Wiltshire! It's done a fair few miles in between in 647 days, but capture sites were 60 miles apart. #lookatthattail
Another successful day at #projectpeewit. This farmer needed to know the location of the nest. Took me a couple minutes to find it. The bird was back on it in less than 3 minutes. Nest found, nest protected. Thank you to all the farmers out there doing so much for wildlife 🙏
My first mist-netting session since last September this morning 😱 (coincidentally CES 1). Great to ring some passerines again. Makes a change from those nasty, smelly waterbirds. 🤣🤣 (Birds handled under licence). 📸 my wife, Carolyn. #ringing #CES #londonbirds
Eurasian Whimbrel, Numenius phaeopus, ringed at Kartong Bird Observatory in 2017 recorded at Brownstown Head, County Waterford, R.O.Ireland. 29/4/2024. Our second record of a KBO ringed Eurasian Whimbrel in North West Europe. An excellent record.
Looks like pied flycatchers are ready! A lovely first day of fieldwork with @DavCanal & co🌿🌳🪶
Nice to catch another Whimbrel last night alongside a Com Sand, 2 Purp Sands, 3 Oycs, 6 Wheatears and a Moorhen!

Another day out #lapwinging successful results as from my previous tweet. These guys, thought, keep distracting me, they are so pretty 😍
Delighted to see our U.K. moorland burning paper has been published in @RSECJournal today. Paper is OA and can be found here - doi.org/10.1002/rse2.3… A great experience working with some fantastic @RSPBScience folks. @davidjtdouglas
There are 3 birds in this picture! Find them 😁 (Full zoom as you can see…). #projectpeewit
Fabulous day at @wildmind_ie festival in Fenit. Wonderful reception to my talk on @NPWSIreland/@_BTO Cuckoo tracking project, overflowing with questions before and after. Looking forward to their arrival back in Ireland. Saw amazing talks by @rickywhela90923 and Stephen Cotter👍

@TDSP_James @jackfifield He’s asking you to try to imagine if that was your situation - we refer to this practice as empathy. Can see this could be a challenge for you.
Back from wintering in Germany (via Cley, Norfolk) and sat on her nest at Scorton in North Yorkshire today!
@Au_Erithacus I believe you. Just cannot make them out
@Au_Erithacus @_James1Phillips @jonny_goes_wild It’s genuinely frightening how little empathy there is for wildlife with this individual
@Au_Erithacus @_James1Phillips Here in Devon @DevonBirds is looking to help with funding of a potential programme for Lapwing in the Exe estuary area. Early stages yet but we are looking for a formal proposal from our partners.
Spring 2024 and I’m not seeing any breeding Lapwing anywhere. This iconic bird seems to have been airbrushed from farmland across Southern England. What was once a classic #farmlandbird has now all but disappeared from the wider countryside. This is so sad 😔 What’s going on?
