Arctic Tern from Twitchers Gate in the last of the evening light. The final shot isn’t a painting- unfortunately it requires heavy denoising and cropping! #wiltsbirds @cwpbirds

A Curlew related update......

This bird has been re-sighted on the Exe Estuary in the last couple of weeks. A movement of about 155 km from its breeding site. A great re-sighting adding vital data to our knowledge of these birds.

Fab day at Savernake forest with family, on the hunt for new birds and monumental trees. Great spotted woodpecker, Nuthatch and marsh tit (I think) of note. #savernake #wiltsbirds Wiltshire Ornithological Society #marshtit

A pair of Ring Ouzels were still on Fyfield Down this morning (Found them yesterday morning). A couple more Wheatear were passing through, nearly stepped on this one. Luckily it flew up to a fence post. Not much else about, hoping for it to warm up soon🤞🏻 #wiltsbirds #BTOWilts

A full day in the field. At CWP colour ringed Great White Egret from the Somerset Levels plus a pair of Garganey, 21 Pintail & singing Gropper. Back in Swindon a female Ring Ouzel along Mill Lane was an unexpected bonus #wiltsbirds

At least 30 Siskin’s in the garden this week, along with a few Redpoll. (Never had that many before). Firecrest along the road. 8 Wheatear on the downs in one visit. Yesterday, Siskin, Crossbill and Bramling in a local wood. It’s been a good birding week so far. #wiltsbirds

The Siskin flock is still coming into the garden every morning. It’s nice to be woken up by their calls. This is from a few weeks ago, I think I counted 22 just on the floor. More were on the feeder and in the Alder tree. (Photo taken through the Bi-folds). #wiltsbirds

Been a busy few days. Two RSPB volunteer farm surveys completed. Highlights 4 Lesser Throat, 13 Wheatear and good numbers of Cornies. Today first Garden Warbler ringed 👍 retrapped a Reed Warbler from 2022 with a Chiffchaff and Long Tailed Tits from 2021 #wiltsbirds
