Wednesday, 16 October 2013. Not quite back at it! Jammed' onto this Rosy Stag! Well, best laid plans and all that.My intention to get back into regular birding fell at the first fence and I haven't been out quite as much as I would like! However, I have 'jammed' onto a few decent birds. A quick look (it turned into an hour! At Ryan's Field on the 7th October (I didn't even have my bins! Allowed quick view of the Lesser Yellowlegs. Just before it was flushed onto the estuary! Finally for now, I had to mak...

The Diary of a BTO nest recorder: Two days in the field
http://nestrecording.blogspot.com/2015/05/two-days-in-field.html
The Diary of a BTO nest recorder. Life as a volunteer field ornithologist. Wednesday, 13 May 2015. Two days in the field. Amounting to 15 hrs. On the downside the Song Thrush nest I found last week has failed. Blue Tit nest and eggs in a Treecreeper wedge style box. The box has no back to it so the Treecreeper's can enter the box and down to the base without leaving the tree trunk. They are wired onto rough barked conifer trees. Wednesday, May 13, 2015.

Follow Bob Bosisto and Pete Roseveare as we go birding and ringing in Cornwall and beyond. Saturday, 31 December 2016. Last day of the year at Goss Moor and Gluvian.

Quartering fields near Treverva. The following day was spent nest recor...

Friday, 27 February 2015. Biking Birder visits Falmouth! Had a great time meeting Gary Prescott (the Biking Birder) on his travels through Falmouth! A great guy attempting to break the record for birds seen in Britain during the course of one year solely by bike and foot! With no initial sign of the LtDuck! Thankfully, after several more minutes of scanning there was a sigh of relief when the 1st win Long-tailed Duck. Flew in and landed in its usual favoured corner. In fact, this was my first time I ...
