    A reed bunting. Common enough but first I've seen actually in Perth. South Inch duck pond.

    Stonechat today, Fife, Scotland

    There were a handful of stonechats at Fife Ness early this morning and this one was noticeably paler than the others. Just a nicely marked rubicola? Sorry about the image quality - took it with my phone as I had my camera in my backpack! Doh! :D

    Nice birding at Killiecrankie and Craig Fonvuick this morning. Tree pipits, redstarts (lots), wood warblers and a female pied flycatcher the highlights. And the first cuckoos for me of 2024!

    I thought the chaffinch at the end was a different bird? If not then yeah, it's that. At times I thought house sparrow tbh.

    Terrific birding walking the Loch Leven heritage trail this morning. (4 hours, 28 minutes thanks for asking) :D Warbler wonderland with chiffchaffs, willow warblers, blackcaps & sedge warblers every few yards. There were plenty whitethroats in the hedgerows along the west side of the loch and...

    I don't think any of the ospreys visiting the nest site have been LM12. She gave up and went and caught a fish for herself this afternoon.

    Looks like the ospreys at Loch of the Lowes might fail this year. 3 eggs laid but male not seen for several days and female now leaving nest for extended periods of time.
