ABERYSTWYTH! Do one thing for Welsh wildlife in 2024! Gwnewch un peth dros fywyd gwyllt Cymru yn 2024! birdsin.wales/an-urgent-mess… Chwefror 15 February 7pm Canolfan @AradGoch
“If you only do one thing for Welsh wildlife in 2024…please do this” Iolo Williams - President birdsin.wales/an-urgent-mess…
A wise artist once said, "Any reason is a good reason to draw a [bunch of] birds." I've now drawn a representative of every living bird group ranked at the level of family by the IOC World Bird List (and a few that aren't)!
We’re delighted to be sponsoring a place for a student from Wales on this year’s @bardseyobs University Week. A terrific opportunity to help out and gain real hands-on experience at Bardsey Lodge and Bird Observatory. More details here: bbfo.blogspot.com/p/joint-univer… Photo:@bardseyben
Great day today at @DyfiOspreys , we managed to see the couple and an intruder that was looking for a nest (picture below), it was ringed on the right foot but unfortunately the number can't be read... The staff working at the reserve was amazing and a pleasure to talk to.
Yesterday was a great day for birding at Tanybwlch, 23 species including a lot of wheatears and linnets and even an amazing juvenile guillemot very close to the shore ! Picture by @aber_nature_shots on Instagram.
#AvianFlu reminder! If you find a dead or sick bird: ⛔ Do not touch it with bare hands ☎️ Report it to @DefraGovUK or @daera_ni if applicable, and via @BirdTrack. Report ringed birds to @_EURING. More info 👉 bto.org/avian-influenza #HPAI #BirdFlu #AvianInfluenza
Great morning at Tanybwlch and in the harbour, we managed to get 22 species with 2 mediterranean gulls in breeding plumage showing well. Full list: ebird.org/checklist/S130… Photos by @gaetan_canon

This is your weekly reminder to clean your bird feeders! 🧼 Practicing good hygiene when feeding garden birds is always important, but especially now as our wild birds are suffering from outbreaks of disease. Read BTO's full advice here 👉 bit.ly/3sBkxy4
More than 300 golden plovers, a surpringly close common scoter and many more at Ynyslas this morning with a total of 21 species. Full species list: ebird.org/checklist/S130… Photos by @gaetan_canon
Nice morning walk around aber with a total of 19 species, highlights were a black redstart (most likely the same female seen earlier this year ) and purple sandpipers.
If planning a walk along a beach this half term - please LEAVE SPACE for feeding/roosting #waders #shorebirds. Here's why: wadertales.wordpress.com/2020/02/03/dis… #ornithology
Are pheasants a problem for wildlife? This question has been brought to the fore by the wild camping issue linked to the pheasant shoot owning Darwalls on Dartmoor. So here’s an intro to the topic … may include elements of outrage … read on
Absolutely stunning morning for @WeBS_UK survey at Tanybwlch. Quiet today, highlights: 8 oystercatcher and 18 teal. Thank you @aberbirdsoc for coming along too!
With the return of @PatchBirding #PWC23 a few of us have organised our own university mini-league if anyone wants to join. We need more entrants to collectively beat Penryn... #patchbirding #lowcarbonbirding
Lovely morning today at Tanybwlch with @NaturNaomi. A total of 21 species including a chough! Full species list : ebird.org/checklist/S123… Photos by @gaetan_canon

A sad reminder that once upon a time a university birding society at UEA could muster over 50 members. Despite what it might seem like on social media, the demographics of birding in the UK have shifted significantly with an ageing cohort very evident out in the field.

Not long now until our annual University week. Thanks to our generous sponsors @WestMidBirdClub @britishbirds @sounds_wild @birdsinwales We are all looking forward to the week immensely and hope that the weather is good for migrants and seabirds and dolphins alike!!
Nightmare start this morning, got locked out of my car in Aberystwyth with the keys inside. Quick fix by a locksmith got me on my way. By lunchtime I was waiting for the Bridled Tern to show. Two hours and several Arctic Skuas later it arrived. What a stunner! @welshbirders
The stunning Solomons Frogmouth was wrongly treated as a subspecies of Marbled Frogmouth until recently. It's now rightly recognised as an endemic, placed in its own genus, and has the strangest shrill whistled call. A trip highlight! #BirdsSeenIn2023 @Birdquest @CanonUKandIE
Excellent again at Strumble this AM. 30+ Stormies (saw 15) some really close with great underwing views. 1 Cory's (missed), 2 Great (missed 1) and 4 Sooty Shearwaters, 1 showing lovely underwing, 2 dark Arctic Skuas the best birds. Most before 10:40. @PembsBirds @welshbirders
A fitting way to reach my 6,666th complete checklist on @Team_eBird with @MJ_McKee
Reflecting on an absurd weekend of @Scillypelagics. I didn't do much photography, but this phone video gives a slight idea of the large shear spectacle. Massive thanks to Bob, Ash, Scott et al for incredible knowledge, and Bob in particular for his hard work confirming the megas
A truly unbelievable set of pelagics with @Scillypelagics . South Polar Skua and Scopoli's Shearwaters (@FinleyHutchins2 📸) were a cut above the rest, with other highlights being 40+ Wilson's Storm Petrels and a Long-tailed Skua. I'll definitely have to go again someday!
