A rare five Grebe day in Clyde kicked off by the stunning Black-necked Grebe at Ardmore Point, soon followed by Slav and Great Crested Grebe. Moving inland to Hogganfield Loch, the Red-necked Grebe showed well with a few Little Grebe present too. Clyde Birding

Slavonian Grebe, Saint Aidan's RSPB, West Yorkshire, April 2025 - the Slavonian Grebe seems to be confused - it was displaying with a Black-necked Grebe.

First seen 10 minutes from home, it's a bit of a shame this White Stork went wandering and I had to leave Clyde to see it. Seen just north of Linlithgow this morning.

That time of year again. The slightest hint of rain, grey skies and a slight chill in spring and you just know Strathclyde Loch will be swarming with Sand Martins. A post work check on Friday afternoon saw numbers climbing to c4400! Only 6 Swallows and 3 House Martin mixed in.

On a post work visit to RSPB Baron's Haugh late this afternoon, it was good to see the smart breeding plumaged Green Sandpiper and ever better to find this Wood Sandpiper had joined it. Great views from the old Phoenix Hide area.

Had another productive visit to RSPB Baron's Haugh this evening. A female Little Ringed Plover was joined by a male and soon after a Wood Sandpiper was calling overhead before dropping in. My second here this spring.

It's been a long day, kicked off by a 3.15am alarm for a Black Grouse survey. Thankfully the Kentish Plover at Tyninghame was still there late afternoon/early evening.

Summer plumaged Grey Phalarope found by Phil Shetland Seabird Tours • The Noss Boat yesterday morning. I got to see it in late evening light last night around 9pm! So glad I did! Look at those feet! OM SYSTEM Cameras #springbirding #greyphalarope #rarebirds #Shetland

This picture depicts a devastating scene that conservationists are seeing up and down the country this breeding season. Lots of hard work is going into protecting these birds; working with farmers, landowners, and collaboration with other conservation groups. We are now
