    Haven't been for a few weeks mainly because I dread how poor the birding will be and the list below illustrates this nicely! One Whitethroat in 4 miles of walking, no Yellowhammer on top of a complete absence of most Farmland birds. The flash had no signs of life. Last years Rape seed crop...

    Still a vocal Cuckoo at both Moors and Flashes this afternoon-the latter visible from the Cuckoo hide still. Single Red Kite at the Flashes. Pair of Mediterranean Gulls and Common Tern still at the Moors. An Otter again, this time wrestling with an Eel or Snake maybe, in front of the concrete...

    It was about this time last year I had 6 over my house in Bromsgrove so hopefully it'll be a regular event, especially with Cranes recorded in other parts of Worcestershire this month 🤞

    Close views of Cuckoo both at the Moors and Flashes this afternoon - the latter from the ... Cuckoo Hide. Either the same or two birds. Yellow Wagtail at the Flashes of interest. Seemingly fewer Avocet but didn't count them. On the Moors, 3 Mediterranean Gulls again. 2 Otters causing havoc -...

    Nice one Ian - I had kind of given up on this thread as X still rules it seems but great to see your input and photos. Last year I had Yellow Wagtail and Wheatear on the paddock where the pigs are kept near the fishing pools at the back of Rowberry Garden Centre. Cheers

    Yes deleted it by mistake trying to tart it up a bit, embarrassingly. Probably a good thing as there’s too many sites/apps to check to get the news and I’d rather be birding! I’ll just be posting on Bluesky now (until I delete that!) Cheers

    This is up and running again, principally for the selfish reason of keeping tabs on scarce and rare stuff, dates etc for future reports, but feel free to bookmark it. I’d be grateful if it wasn’t shared on the hateful X site as I don’t want any bots and shite. I’ll be updating it daily ish and...
