Hooded Birder: August 2013
http://hoodedbirder.blogspot.com/2013_08_01_archive.html
Garden Bird List. innit. Thursday, 1 August 2013. The confirmation of a Night Heron. At Thornton Reservoir yesterday has aroused the Hooded Birder from his blogging slumber, as this was the first county record within my life-time I was quite eager to see it. And so I did earlier this evening. It was good. Now if you please, a selection of dodgy record shots have been carefully arranged for your viewing pleasure:. I also life-ticked the Pacific Golden Plover. Thursday, August 01, 2013. Half the bird away.

Hooded Birder: No need for suicide afterall...
http://hoodedbirder.blogspot.com/2013/10/no-need-for-suicide-afterall.html
Garden Bird List. innit. Tuesday, 1 October 2013. No need for suicide afterall. The mild disappointment at not seeing a Yellow-browed Warbler on the east coast over the weekend was quickly wiped away this week with the arrival of one in a garden in Oakham yesterday, which was awfully decent of it. I went for a look this morning and after a bit of a wait it called for a couple of minutes before showing itself very briefly in a hawthorn until a Blackbird flushed it. Tuesday, October 01, 2013.

Hooded Birder: December 2013
http://hoodedbirder.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html
Garden Bird List. innit. Thursday, 12 December 2013. News of a cracking male Velvet Scoter. Showing well at Eyebrook lured me over there yesterday morning (may aswell put my new lros membership to good use! And wasn't disappointed, it wasn't a county tick as I'd seen the Swithland birds last winter but it was much more aesthetically pleasing this time. The bird showed unbelievably well, close to the fishing lodge - even being obscured by marginal vegetation at times. Thursday, December 12, 2013.

Hooded Birder: October 2012
http://hoodedbirder.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
Garden Bird List. innit. Sunday, 28 October 2012. Suppose I'd better write a blog post! I suppose the lack of activity on this blog could be explained by the fact that the author (me) obviously hasnt done anything or seen anything of note since the last post. This assumption would be wrong, the fact that I've simply been too lazy to upload any photos off my phone is probably closer to the mark. Learnt to drive this tractor too.and it was good. Moving onto birding related news, Hooded Birder has bought a ...

Hooded Birder: September 2013
http://hoodedbirder.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
Garden Bird List. innit. Sunday, 29 September 2013. As alluded to in my previous post I've just returned from a short trip up to Spurn point. Travelling up on Thursday evening meant we could get a early start on Friday morning and we weren't to be disappointed with Spurn's first Firecrest. Of the autumn trapped just as we arrived - although it was in-the-hand it was a good start to see one so close! The undoubted bird of the trip for me was my first Red-breasted Flycatcher. That had been present for a fe...

Hooded Birder: December 2012
http://hoodedbirder.blogspot.com/2012_12_01_archive.html
Garden Bird List. innit. Sunday, 9 December 2012. As I mentioned in todays earlier post, I've been gorging on Waxwings. This weekend, much like the birds themselves behave when berries are present. On Friday afternoon, after I'd been to Swithland for a proper look at the Velvet Scoter. Gaff to collect a couple of Owlsaboutthatthen calenders (an excellent stocking filler! And he told me all about how he'd been there earlier in the day and that viewing was excellent! This was all the encouragement I needed...

Hooded Birder: Green Sandpiper
http://hoodedbirder.blogspot.com/2014/02/green-sandpiper.html
Garden Bird List. innit. Sunday, 2 February 2014. I headed out this morning on the look for some Little Owls. Hoping that they would be taking advantage of the sunny conditions and be easy to spot. In the end I checked several regular sites and only found one bird and didn't bother photographing it as the resulting image would have been an exact replica of my last posted image. The surprise was finding a Green Sandpiper. Sunday, February 02, 2014. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Owls about that then!

Hooded Birder: Another one...
http://hoodedbirder.blogspot.com/2014/01/another-one.html
Garden Bird List. innit. Wednesday, 1 January 2014. Yes, another year has passed; now is the time for reflection of past deeds and for the planning of new ones! First and foremost of my new deeds for this year is to try and post more on here, I can explain away large chunks of my blogging absence by the fact I was living in a caravan at Rutland Water for a few months but more recently Ive upgraded to a wee cottage and equipped it with some internet so no more excuses! Be relatively easy;. Corn Bunting - ...
