A birthday treat, some local good birds, Fly agaric and our first whoopers of the year arrived today




Stonechats 



1000's of Pink-footed geese have arrived in the Humber

A marsh harrier terrifying the local shellducks 



Reed Bunting 



Barn Owl 

Chiffchaff 




Lots of Buzzards souring in the last days of summer





 Fly agaric







 100's of bearded tits, but the breeze kept them in the reeds



We had a birthday in our house this week, any excuse for a big haddock !  Simon chose the Marrowbone and Cleaver in Kirmington, Guy Martin's pub. Good pub grub, excellent Spanner beer and very reasonably priced. Plates were cleared and more pints were supped. An excellent night out. 
Happy birthday Simon xx 




Today saw our first whooper swans arrive. Two on a local lake this morning.  


A large flock of teal with this very odd cream coloured one. Certainly stands out.
