WHAT'S BUZZING OR FLYING NEAR YOU 2018

Well, hmph....not all of us actually partake of the golden stuff young man

 

Dog put up a Woodcock this morning, first one I've seen around here

Cor, Dog would like it there

 

Great White Egret (again!) in Weymouth, face on it looks odd.




Greenshank.


Common Gull, uncommon around here and then only for the winter, Black Headed Gulls in front, although neither have black heads in winter! Confused? I am!

 

Love the first pic Clive

 

my back woods.

 

Gorgeous @redstar

 

Thems won't like you burning leaves under them, make leaf mould not war

 

Nice footage. We get flocks in certain places here, sometimes 3,000 birds or more but very unpredictable. Here when they gather in large numbers and form fantastic patterns in the sky at dusk they are called 'murmurations'

 

We get a occasional starling, they scare the other birds off the feeder, hence I'm not a huge fan. However, when they flock, wow, the murmerations are something to behold

 

Went to the local bird hides this afternoon, and no birds



Only a single Dragonfly on the path to the hides
