    RSPB Middleton Lakes

    The water levels were high and still rising when I left early afternoon today. It wouldn't surprise me if water was lapping at the hide door in the morning. The only saving grace is that water can now flow back into the river quickly these days as soon as we have a dry spell. Anyway here's what...

    Cool your jets lads, it'll be re-lumped soon anyway! ;) As a self-consessed corvidaphile, it's still a regional MEGA as I'm concerned though!

    Update to Macmillan Field Guide to Bird Identification

    Rare and Scarce Birds in Staffordshire

    I tend to agree with you completely Steve. I hope you don't mind but I posted the pics on the 'UK Gulls' Facebook Group and Richard Bonser posted the following reply: 'You can see the underside to P10 on this bird shows an pale tip and then an extensively dark tongue, ruling out any thought of...

    Marsh Warbler?

    It pains me to do it but I would have to agree with 'Pessimist Perrins' on this one. ;) After a quick snatch of mimicry and initial views of the bird skulking around at the base of a willow the bird seemed pretty good for Marsh Warbler however I managed some very good views of it late on as it...
