Brilliant to find this 1st Winter Grey Phalarope off Maryport Golf Course yesterday whilst ringing with the West Cumbria Ringing Group under the @btobirds.bsky.social ringing scheme. It showed well whilst feeding in the waves around high tide.

One pair of the Foulshaw Moss Ospreys eating dinner on Friday evening #cumbriabirding #ukbirding

From this morning in the front garden of the rental property in St John’s in the Vale, a Coal Tit.

Buttermere full of birds yesterday, including tonnes of Pied Flycatchers checking out nest sites and Dippers along the streams. Also Hawfinch, Redstarts, Osprey, and Wood Warbler. #UKBirding #CumbriaBirding ##LakeDistrict

From Aira Force on the 06.10.25, no luck with Dipper’s, but I did find 3 Goosander on a couple of calmer sections of the cascades.

Another day, another Todd's Canada. Fortunately amongst one of the closer flocks of shimmering Solway Barnies, NE of Esk Boathouse just now #cumbriabirding #alwaysgoosing

Great morning on Park End Moss with a male Hen Harrier swooping through on the blustery NE wind, GWE, Kingfisher, 6 spring Curlew N and 2 Redshank (boring, but first ones I've had on the pool). #Cumbriabirding #ukbirding

Beautiful dawn visit to my local patch, Park End Moss NT, no Chiffchaff, but plenty to look at. 2 Cettis wbr, loads of Grey heron eating the frogs, and 4 flocks of Pinks high north. #cumbriabirding #cumbriabirds
