Little tern preen, Seaton Carew beach. Steady flow of birds presenting sand eels to potential partners early this morning. Many thanks as ever to DurhamWildlifeTrust wardens maintaining this precious sanctuary. teesbirds NorthYorksBirdNews RSPB NatureUK BBC Springwatch

Throwing Muses, Leeds 18.5.25. Incredible set, perfect Dylan bass and Pete cello, to complement the oldies and smash out the new album. Rock solid, and NOT held together with gaffer tape 🤪 Break a leg (or cymbal), for the rest of the tour. Throwing Muses kristin hersh

Redstart in the morning, shepherd’s warning (but birder’s delight). Local pair are doing well on my village outskirts, as are the woodcock pair (fighting or displaying today, I couldn’t decide).

Marsh harrier, Nosterfield Quarry. Always good to catch up with the pair here, whilst waiting for my first hobby of the year over the reed bed. Thanks to Stephen W for hobby heads up whilst I was nearby. Nosterfield Nature Reserve NorthYorksBirdNews teesbirds Yorkshire Wildlife Trust - follow us on Bluesky šŸ¦‹ RSPB

Grey partridge ā€˜song’, Thormanby Fields. Four birds courting this evening, not something I’ve seen or heard before, nor all that chasing about. Distracted me whilst I was listening out for corn bunting and yellowhammer. NorthYorksBirdNews teesbirds Yorkshire Wildlife Trust - follow us on Bluesky šŸ¦‹ RSPB

Glad this woodcock pair are still about; were chasing each other yesterday, Sleddale. A bit more footage of them feeding from the other day, shot from inside my car. NorthYorksBirdNews teesbirds North York Moors NP RSPB BBC Springwatch NatureUK #birds

Lament for a pet fish, Throwing Muses. ā€œBywaterā€ snippet as Freddie Mercury heads out to sea, last week at Leeds Brudenell. Looking forward to Camden’s Electric Ballroom gig on Tuesday for my second helping. A few tickets still available Throwing Muses kristin hersh ElRat Designs

Watched a stoat carry its young rabbit kill away yesterday, up on the North York Moors. And some more distant pied flycatchers, slaughtering caterpillars. NorthYorksBirdNews North York Moors NP teesbirds RSPB NatureUK #birds #ukbirding
