Guiding in the Dale

Guiding in the Dale

May 20, 2019December 23, 2019 Simon Rix Leave a comment

Yesterday I was guiding Andy from Florida. We spent the whole day in Maridalen and despite a very fresh northerly wind the Dale did not disappoint and we had a very fun and production session. I was back in the Dale this morning (where else would I be) to follow up on the Ortolan Buntings. […]

Quiet morning at Minsmere

Quiet morning at Minsmere

October 27, 2018December 23, 2019 Brian Anderson Leave a comment

At the crack of dawn we’re walking the north bushes at Minsmere only to find a few Brambling and a Bullfinch for our effort. An Otter and four Red Deer showed as we walked the north wall and lot’s of Beardies pinged all around but despite the calm didn’t show that well. On the wader […]

Day 4 of my guiding of Lotti and Detlef on Thursday was in Maridalen. The Three-toed Woodpeckers showed impeccably well but we then had a great disappointment when I discovered that the Red-breasted Flycatcher nest had fallen down. Whether it was a predator (squirrel or Great Spotted Woodpecker) or the wind is unknown but there […]

Catching a few ticks in Tuddenham

Catching a few ticks in Tuddenham

April 21, 2017December 23, 2019 Brian Anderson Leave a comment

Saturday saw me going solo down at Elmley while the Jims enjoyed Vange Marshes Stilts. I had good but brief views of a day flying Barn Owl, a Peregrine hunting the marshes with several Buzzards and Marsh Harriers. Hares were putting on a show and the mating rituals of Lapwing and Redshank were in full […]

Glossy Ibis at Ely

Glossy Ibis at Ely

March 9, 2017December 23, 2019 Brian Anderson Leave a comment

First stop this morning was Kiln Lane Ely where we parked up and walked down the lane a few hundred yards to view the flooded fields. The first walk along the footpath failed to locate the Ibis that’s chosen to over winter in Cambridgeshire. As I walked back the Jims called to say the target […]

5 bars! Eastern Crowned Warbler!

5 bars! Eastern Crowned Warbler!

October 14, 2016December 23, 2019 Yoav Perlman Leave a comment

Phew, what a day that was. Yesterday evening the news of an Eastern Crowned Warbler at Bempton Cliffs broke. I had planned a morning’s birding with Terry a long time ago, which I didn’t want to give up, plus I had stuff to do in the afternoon, so I peacefully (or not?) accepted that I […]

Action at the Lake

Action at the Lake

April 18, 2013December 22, 2019 John Wright 1 Comment

Late this afternoon I stopped in at what is reputedly the smallest and newest lake in Japan, Lake Shirachi in Shimabara. Actually more of a large pond than a lake, it is surrounded by streets but usually has herons and egrets as well as a few resident “soup” ducks. However it is also a good […]

Reikyu Park, Shimabara

Reikyu Park, Shimabara

April 3, 2013December 22, 2019 John Wright Leave a comment

Another spot I don’t usually visit is Reikyu Park in Shimabara City. Although at first glance this seems like a good birding area, it is usually pretty quiet. But now is Cherry Blossom time, so plenty of birds are visiting to feed on the flowers, and this congregation attracts other birds as well. Today I […]
