Paul Matson's Birding Blog. Harpy Eagle, Venezuela, April 2016. Friday, 27 February 2015. Friday 27th February - Winter Surfing Excursion. On finding the correct car park, with lots of birders on the beach (non of whom had yet entered the water), it was within seconds that the Surf Scoter. Was visible, with 2 Common Scoters. And best of all a large (presumably female) Goshawk. Seen on 3 occasions between 1.30pm and 2pm. 2 Ravens. Also flew over and in the garden a brief burst of song from a Firecrest.

I hadn't been for a walk from the house for a long while, so decided to do just that this morning, especially as the weather looked good for the first part of the day, a slight frost was on the ground as I climbed over the garden fence just after 8am and headed up to the lane. A Great Spotted Woodpecker. Was in the big arable field, several Siskin.
