Out of nowhere, a Serin was singing in the allotments on patch again this AM. First since Oct '24. Only a handful winter in western NL so completely baffling why they keep turning up here! Foy Oystercatcher, 2cy casp #dpwc2025 62/120 #dutch_patchwork_challenge @patchbirding.bsky.social

After yesterday's star 2cy Montagu's, safe to say I was *not* expecting a gorgeous adult male on patch this late AM! A proper rare bird locally, well chuffed to get 2 in 2 days! #dpwc2025 @patchbirding.bsky.social

Blue skies after a frosty night brought 3 duck additions to the #dpwc2025 list (49/120). Pochard only the 2nd patch record on the deck, teal a frost-only species on patch. RR parakeet enjoying the weather. #dutchpatchworkchallenge @patchbirding.bsky.social

After spending some time outside for #dpwc2025 and storing nicely with 12 yearspecies, incl Spotshank and Blackwit I read the adventures of Ponç Feliu Latorre who did a Green Big Year on his bike. Read his blog

An unringed red-crested pochard (after a ringed pair earlier this year) a landmark patch species #150 this AM! Amazing number for an inland urban patch in slightly over 5 years. A purple hairstreak also new for patch #dpwc2025 @patchbirding.bsky.social
