Twitch, Don't Dip. Just another WordPress.com weblog. Archive for February, 2011. February 26, 2011. I was hesitant to write this post for fear of jinxing myself but with only a few days to go, why not? Exams and essays are finished, time for spring break. This year I’ll be flying into Texas March 2nd, birding the 3rd and 4th, then flying to Florida on the 5th to meet up with Nick L. And bird there until we fly out the 11th. Lots of ground to cover. Just finished up a tour for Birdfinders. An Oriental Tu...

Sibe2 | Birding over my head
https://birdingovermyhead.wordpress.com/2013/01/11/sibe2
Birding over my head. Look up, see more stuff. Best of the rest of the recycled highlights. January 11, 2013. I was browsing recent Berksbirds photos. Last night and noticed this striking fellow. In a picture taken by Linda Garner-Langham at the west end of Sandford Lake. Fraser Cottington has confirmed that the bird is still present today, and is looking good for Dinton CP’s first. Landlocked birder with limited horizons, usually not looking at them. View all posts by PaulBT →. Leave a Reply Cancel reply.

Garden | Birding over my head
https://birdingovermyhead.wordpress.com/garden
Birding over my head. Look up, see more stuff. Birding Over My Head pays a lot of attention to my garden, since that’s where I do a substantial amount of my birding. So here’s some more information about the garden and its surroundings. No need for the zoom. Birding is occasionally done, even deliberately, from the front garden; it has a lawn and a mature rowan tree, which attracts thrushes, Starlings, and even Waxwings. The brook after heavy rain. The marsh soon after dawn. Some distance to the W there ...

John's Wildlife Wanderings: January 2015
http://johnswildlifewanderings.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Monday, 26 January 2015. White Nuns, Great Grey Shrike and much more! Had a day to myself on Sunday (25/01), so having done most of my recent birding close to home, I decided to do the rounds a bit further a field and head towards the north end of Northants. I set off first thing in the dark, driving straight to Blatherwyke, NE of Corby. I had a good look around the old church here with a couple of Hawfinch recently reported here. Sadly no sign with just good numbers of Chaffinch. I then headed back alon...

Otmoor Birding: March 2015
http://otmoorbirding.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
Background Info and Access. Monday, 30 March 2015. Saturday and Sunday 28th and 29th March. Winter seems reluctant to release its grip on the season and spring migration appears to have stalled. Equinoctial gales were very much the order of the weekend and heavy frequent showers meant I only managed a couple of hours on the moor on Sunday. There was still a lot to see and enjoy despite there not having being a flood of incoming migrants. Goldies among the tussocks (c) Bark Phonescoped. The Grey Herons th...
