@BakerBoySOG @EBwSTweets Thanks for sharing, Paul - am already in contact with the EBR team about this, hoping the app will make their lives easier (eg to extract Metropolitan Essex records from eBird London data).

@GJecology @paul33606 You timed it well! The last few weeks have pulled in a pretty decent selection of birds, and then the weather today was good for viewing. Almost warm in the sunshine at times... which is a rarity for Abberton in itself!

@BakerBoySOG So sorry to hear the news, Paul. Have donated and will be thinking of you all.

@JLowenWildlife @beardybirder @iPterodroma I'm very glad you did - absolutely superb bird!

RT @FlamboroughBird: A handy interactive map is now available for our recording area, follow the link below

@porthkillier @LondonBirdClub That's really sad to hear - Sean was always great company and an excellent, knowledgeable birder. Gone too soon.

@suffolkbirder @harris_sjh Is that a pair of Swarrwoofskis he's got there there? #illGetMyCoat

@birdphotos007 @EssexBirdNews What's the argument for it _not_ being the same returning bird from last winter, and the Netherlands since then ? This feels like the most likely scenario.

@Luscinia61 I was pretty surprised when 4 PBBrents went underneath us at PG yesterday morning too! Feels incredibly early for them to be back, but gather some have returned to Anglesey as well.

@MJ_McKee @MwallacepgP Brilliant!! Well done for the lengthy video recording. So pleased both groups got it, recorded it, identified it independently - perfect. Gutted I missed the dancing and waving afterwards though! 😉

@YellowShriker @EssexBirdNews @EssexWildlife @BTO_EssexNE Very nice! I had no idea that little patch of habitat existed, either - another spot to check out.

@lizardschwartz @DarylRhymes It's not going anywhere in a hurry this time, Amy - has basically no primaries at the moment!

@birdingprof Not that I have used it much (yet) but Bluesky should be even better for stumbling across random related posts, since you can follow feeds (eg ukbirding) as well as people. I think it's pretty good, though personally I've fallen out of the habit of posting anything anywhere!

@birdingprof @RSPBTitchwell @Vaasetter Green-yellow-green on R leg is usually a Suffolk ringed bird from the Alde, and Pete Potts may be able to help with details. Will DM you.

@DarylRhymes Ah, of course! Got to study other things when Brent are out of season...
