The Shropshire skies were busy with migrants last night, not only tiny ones from a long way south, but a #salopobs #nocmig record 260 Redwing calls and a flock of Pinks (which brought the yearlist to 124) ebird.org/checklist/S201…

Portrait day for last night's moths. The late autumn clientèle really are fab #mothsmatter #teammoth

Surveys by Peter Howlett for MARINElife on Peltic surveys provide more proof that thousands of Woodpigeons cross the Channel in Autumn: England to France. Many flocks visible on radar, all south, at 30mph speed, with 1.6k seen 15m N Alderney 31/10 & 10-20k 20m SW Guernsey 26/10

With hundreds of scoter and Eider miles out in Gosford Bay, it was good of the White-winged Scoter to be in one of the closer groups this pm. Also 1 drake Surfer, 3 RNGs & 30+ Slavs but no Stejneger's, sadly Birding Lothian RareBirdAlertUK

It was good of the #salopobs #nocmig recorder to catch a Hawfinch for me this morning as I snoozed in bed 😴👂 #loveautumn

New roost for the books on the edge of Beverley Kane Brides! As this is the Wetland Bird Survey #GSMP_UK weekend, is it being included or could Darren (George) Best - also on Bluesky maybe get the numbers to you?

Another week, another kink. One of four Whoopers north over a Grimsby suburb this morning #whoops

At 1605, 5 Blackbirds spiralled up out of gardens on the western fringe of Grimsby and headed off high west. Then another 8, then 11... By 1640 I'd counted 💥328💥😍 #blackmagic 🖤 #vismig #timelesswonder
