First Jack back on patch today, Tidenham Chase, approx 3 weeks earlier than last year. #GlosBirds @Gloucestershire Wildlife Trust Mike King🦉🐺 UK Half Snipe

Alerted to its presence by the call, I was delighted to find a Ring Ouzel on patch this afternoon. Been hoping for a good few years that one of these would turn up. Poor’s, Tidenham Chase. #GlosBirds Mike King🦉🐺 @Gloucestershire Wildlife Trust

We're thrilled to share a rare glimpse of the elusive #nightjar, beautifully captured nesting in one of our reserves. This video is not just a snapshot of Gloucestershire's wildlife—it’s a reminder of our responsibility to protect these incredible birds and their habitats.

Much reduced numbers of these on patch this season compared to last year🤔. No more than two found on any one day. Jack snipe, Tidenham Chase. #GlosBirds @Gloucestershire Wildlife Trust UK Half Snipe
