    Lincolnshire Birding

    My parents were at Donna Nook yesterday and saw a Hooded Crow, feeding on a seal carcass. Genuine article or a hybrid?

    Suffolk Birding

    I'm glad I went back (I was there about 9.30 on the Sunday). It really did show well. Are there any photos of this bird anywhere? Tim

    Suffolk Birding

    Any sign of the Radde's at Shingle Street after it was released? Also, whereabouts at Shingle Street is best for such migrants (where does the ringing take place)? I've been down a few times and the bushes between the road and the houses (almost at the end of the road) look best, but all I've...

    Rose-coloured Starling I have re-located to Suffolk - well got a job there at least, hopefully everything else will fall into place - but was back in Manchester this weekend and popped over to Lytham St Ann's for the Rose-coloured Starling. Cracking bird - thanks to the owner of no.69 for...

    Any sign of the Rough legged Buzzard that was regularly reported over near Great Yarmouth a few weeks back? I know it hasn't been on RBA recently and just wondered if anyone was looking. Thanks Tim

    Suffolk Birding

    How big an area is there for the Pallas's Warbler at Gunton to hide in? I'm assuming the wood is quite large. Any tips on which particular part to focus a search, or is the bird doing circuits? Also, I see there were 20+ Red-crested Pochards reported yesterday at Flixton Gravel Pits. Does...
