Monday, 13 February 2012. Winter Ducks and Geese. One of the Yellowhammer flock (taken through glass! Further along the Solway, at Carsethorn, we had fantastic views of a Peregrine patrolling the shore and putting up the large flocks of Lapwing, Dunlin and Oystercatchers. Yet again geese were seen at great distance on the mud banks of the Solway. A flotilla of Scaup. Turnstones, Redshank and Black-headed Gulls. On our way home we crossed the moorland to the east of Stranraer in beautiful sunlight. Ve...

Monday, 23 January 2012. Pagham Harbour and Selsey Bill. Yesterday saw Gen, Paul and ourselves up before the crack of dawn to travel down to West Sussex for a birding adventure with Beds Birds. John, our leader for the day, had prepared for the trip meticulously including going down a day ahead and scouting out the best viewpoints. We really enjoyed the walk despite the lack of ducks. There were 3 Grey Heron, standing in meadows, looking a bit fed up and two very vocal Little Egret flew over. Thi...After...

North Bucks Wildlife: Willen and CMK
http://northbuckswildlife.blogspot.com/2011/04/willen-and-cmk.html
This blog is about all forms of wildlife I record around North Buckinghamshire and Milton Keynes in particular. My main interests for 2012 will be looking for anything I've not seen before. Tuesday, April 5. This lunchtime. From the hide 1 Green Sandpiper, 2 Common Tern, 1 Little Grebe, 1 Little Ringed Plover, 2 Oystercatchers. And a Willow Warbler in full song behind me. The South Lake held nothing of note. Other than Wood Pigeons a single singing Skylark was noted. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

This blog is about all forms of wildlife I record around North Buckinghamshire and Milton Keynes in particular. My main interests for 2012 will be looking for anything I've not seen before. Wednesday, May 18. I'd staked out last years Noctule roost a couple of times in the day over the last few weeks to see if I could hear them. My results were 1 Greater Spotted Woodpecker in and out and worst still 2! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. BIRDING NORTH BUCKS AND BEYOND.
