Fantastic few days away Norfolk Suffolk & Lincs. Especially enjoyed seeing the Bee eaters at Trimmingham.

Not surprised that Hobby was giving me the eyeball, as the D850 I was using sounds more like a pneumatic drill than a camera at times. Another Hobby & a Cuckoo all taken at Lakenheath.

You never think of a Willow Warbler or a Grey Wagtail as being baddies. But looking at the faces of that Caterpillar & Dragonfly.... Natures food chain.... WW at Wolferton & GW at Cavernham Heath

Quite a few Kingfishers about at Lakenheath on our recent holiday, although most were nothing more than a blue flash whizzing past your eyes. 😁

Feeding time for these young fledgelings at Bempton 😀

Brilliant views of the Greater Sand Plover at Redcar, as last time we saw one it was in the middle of a sandstorm in Northumberland 😬 Many thanks to finder Paul Hinley 👍 teesbirds Durham Bird Club

Normally these shots would have been put straight in the bin. No detail & not a Tern in sight. But had to share the joy at seeing 3 Arctic Skua's at the Snook this afternoon. Bird flu has wreaked so much havoc on this birds population. Thanks 𝙎𝙞𝙢𝙤𝙣 𝙎𝙩𝙤𝙗𝙖𝙧𝙩 🦆🦉🦊 for the nod teesbirds

We had tremendous views of the Red-backed Shrike at Marske yesterday evening. Thanks to finder Chris Small 😀 teesbirds Durham Bird Club

Oooh! It's getting exciting, the holidaymakers are starting to arrive! Many thanks to Bob Robertson & Andrew Wappat for their amazing finds of the Wryneck & Red-breasted Flycatcher 👍 teesbirds NorthYorksBirdNews Durham Bird Club

Sparrowhawk did a regular round at Hartlepool headland yesterday, hoping to have one of the new arrivals for lunch 😳 Garden Warbler & Spotted Flycatcher teesbirds Durham Bird Club

2 Red-legged Partridges really brightened up a wet miserable day in County Durham 😀 Durham Bird Club teesbirds

Such a pleasure watching this Barn owl hunt in the Durham Dales the other day 😀 Durham Bird Club teesbirds

This Coue's Arctic Redpoll at Dormans is another lifer for me. The North East certainly attracts some cracking rarities 😀 teesbirds Durham Bird Club

We saw hundreds of Bee Eaters fly over La Janda during the course of our holiday. Thankfully, a few decided to make use of the nearby trees to rest and feed. Their colours are amazing. 😀

Delighted to say that what I thought was a Hen Harrier, turns out to be a Montagu's Harrier as I had missed out on photographing the only other one we saw. Happy days 😀

Anyone thinking of booking a holiday to Malta should think about this. Spring hunting for turtle dove to go ahead as court lifts injunction timesofmalta.com/articles/view/…

Congratulations and Many Many Thanks to Gary Woodburn for finding and putting the word out on this amazing Grey-headed Lapwing. 😍 Northumberland & Tyneside Bird Club Durham Bird Club teesbirds

Hobbies never fail to put on such a stunning show of speed and agility when hunting for food. Holiday snap taken at Minsmere. 😀

Have to admit it felt really funny when people on the beach at Hunmanby Gap were asking what we were looking at, to have to tell them it's a Brown Booby 😂
