The weekend that was...

Busy, busy, busy... a county tick (327) - it's taken a third county bird to catch up, but what a belter. Thanks to CB for use of the 600/1.4...  The first day of "Winter" - I'll take more like this.






Not forgetting the Saturday shrike... a few more from yesterday evening...









Last day of summer... late afternoon Shrike

Once bittern


Tales of the unexpected continue, with nightshift and tides preventing the opportunity to head to Holy Island for the UKs' 5th Siberian Accentor (!) and Isabelline Shrike, a Brucie-bonus in the form of a Bittern at St Mary's Wetland - paraded itself remarkably well, just wish I'd had the bigger lens!

From Dusk till...

"Made do" with a Dusky Warbler at Tynemouth this morning, albeit in heavy rain - no images, so some more from yesterday... the bizarre "influx" continues, with another, yet another closer to home!

Northumberland must have one too?

A 'Centor of attention...



The problem with digital photography is that you can just snap away - until the amount of images to review / edit becomes an unfavourable task... more images here later...
