Shot with my phone, a female Black Woodpecker this morning, completely relaxed with me watching here for 30 minutes, just 10 metres away. Wonderful birds. The male was more wary, but kept a close eye one me whilst this was going on…

Sandemar Reserve this morning was superb, best was Red Necked Grebe in glorious summer plumage, also all manner of newly arrived migrants and passage waders.8 Temminck’s Stint were very much appreciated.

Common Whitethroat is alway a joy to field record when they return each spring, a big wave of arrivals this week at Sandemar Reserve in Sweden. This one was particularly cooperative this morning.

In search of Common Redstart in some incredible habitat at Elfvik, Sweden. Over the moon to field record 8 different singing males, all of which were mimicking a host of other species. Incredible morning, with results far exceeding my expectations…
