How cool is the Sand Martin Hide at Attenborough NR?
Little bit of time this afternoon to stop by. Great place, lovely views of a Hobby and a Cuckoo among nearly 50 species!

Year tick Yellow Wags & a Wheatear all beautifully lined up like musical notes on a wire fence. Too distant to capture sadly.
Enjoyed observing common birds, a Blackcap hunting insects, a nest building Chiffy with a feather in its bill. Also a Cattle Egret in flight

I walked around the whole of Langford Lowfields today & I’m knackered. Found a pair of Yellow Wags, many Willow Warbler & 2 Lesser Whitethroats, all of which were NFY (#189). Nice to see a female Goosander & Peregrine scything through. No luck seeing a Cetti’s still. #birds #ukbirding #nottsbirding

A lifer for #SuperSeabirdSunday!
A Leach's Storm-Petrel was found at Idle Washlands, Nottinghamshire today.
Very windy making sea like conditions with the waves on the lake. The Leach's seemed right at home.

Incredible! Leach’s Petrel - a bird that lives in the open ocean for most of the year, feeding beyond the edge of the continental shelf of Europe - 40+ miles inland at Misson, Notts this morning. Wow, wow, wow. A knock-out bird. #lifer #ukbirding #birdsseenin2026 #birds #nottsbirding

A pair of Red-crested Pochards were nice to see at Kilvington, we don't get them locally very often. Good increase in wildfowl plus 10 Whoopers and 2 GWEgrets flying. Felt 'birdy' today. #nottsbirding #ukbirding
