Missed a wailing GND today which is a bit unfortunate- here's tweaked version of one on the river in 2023.

I've been a bit late to the party with all these Hawfinches but here's a quick movieskit to mark one in churchyard yews today

nice thing I read this morning - someone calling that white bit on a Buzzard's chest its mayoral chain

Doesn't take long for Lapwings to feel a freeze- several birds with ice hanging off crest and UTC first thing but hopefully they will make it into the thaw this week coming.

I seem to have a dose of the scribbles so here's another: Mergs have been in full display and pair-forming since November as per usual, but here's them cranking it up a bit today.

This Peregrine possibly the only bird on the river feeling a bit too hot today- had about a dozen shots at forcing Teal into the water and grabbing by hover, then gave up and had to sit on beach panting to cool off.

Not sure where a week has gone but anyway- here's three colours of acrylic dragged over a BTD drawing to liven it up.

Four days on the trot without anything you could call birding but I did get to watch a Kestrel in the fog out of an upstairs window.

Over 40 years since I was first bullied into doing a cover for Suffolk Bird Report. This one painted onto canvas and given a little tickle in Photoshop once scanned, might sound like a crime to the purists but is no different to finishing off a crème brûlée with blowtorch really.

No godwit in a 1Km radius at low tide this AM then this one descended out of nowhere and parked next to my tripod whilst I was having a wazz in the hedge. Also odd for Dec is that it has a yellow bill- makes ya wonder how early the first birds from Iberia start to colour up?

A bit boisterous out on the river today- not spyhopping orcas or drowning badgers, but Avocets feeding in the foamy surf.

A bit of BNG/Slav fun on the river currently- still not sure which of which we have in our little flock of four. I am aware of the basic rule, which states that if it looks like a Jack Russell its a Slav and BNGs look like Poodles.

From last week. One of the grandest entertainments during hightide downtime is waiting for the dewdrop to fall from the tip of a GBBG's beak.

@annie_shadrake might be clearer in the original German! I fancy they are saying that if one plants ones right eye on the left eyepiece of the bins one can enjoy the view thru bins whilst the camera does its thing on the right eyepiece
