The very lovely Semipalmated Sandpiper very early this morning (Friday) at Hayle on the incoming tide. It literally ran under our feet. We waited until 8pm in the evening for the Franklin's but it was a no-show sadly. Cornwall Birds BirdGuides RareBirdAlertUK

Found my first #Whinchat of the Autumn at Dawlish Warren today, feeding on the ground amongst a mixed flock. It remained mobile after being seen off by the Stonechat pair and then lost to view somewhere in the scrub. Dawlish Warren Devon Birds

Lay about all day, playing Xbox, doing sod all, waiting for me to present food and snacks and never tidying up… hang on… offspring has left home!

After a 5am visit the morning before, Foxy appeared at breakfast time today. She's looking so healthy now after rearing her cubs. Her tail is full again and she looks radiant again. Our girl! #FoxOfTheDay
