  7. Once Bittern, Twice Shy...

    Botaurus stellaris
    Eurasian Bittern

    The Bittern is a secretive bird, seldom seen in the open as it prefers to skulk in reed beds and thick vegetation near water bodies.

  12. Fly By Shooting

    Statistically speaking, it's more likely to be a Cormorant, but it could also be a Shag, cast your vote now....

  17. Ah, Grasshopper!

    Anthus pratensis
    Meadow Pipit

    Fascinating to watch it dashing around the sun-scorched grasslands gathering up crickets and/or grasshoppers (not sure which) for a few moments. It managed to fit 3 in its beak before flying off, presumably to a nearby nest to feed young.

  22. Quit Your Choughing Nagging, Woman.... Of course I remembered to put the bins out...

    Pyrrhocorax pyrrhocorax
    Red-billed Chough

    Not particularly rare yet, just restricted to a few coastal sites as it's habitat is destroyed by modern farming practises. Choughs pair up for life and return to the same nesting sites each year.

  27. Z is for Z'ats All Folks

    My A to Z of Birds is over.

    Normal service will be resumed as soon as possible.

    Thanks for those that hung around.

  28. W is for Warbler Warbling

    Acrocephalus schoenobaenus Sedge Warbler

    It would almost be possible to do an A to Z of the different types of warbler.... maybe next year...

  29. U is for Uria

    Uria aalge
    Common Guillemot

    Guillemots make no nest, a single egg is incubated between the adult's feet on a bare rock ledge on a cliff face.

  30. S is for Secretive Swan

    Last of the remainers on a local lake, they are normally found in larger groups having come to the UK from Iceland for a Winter holiday

    Cygnus cygnus
    Whooper Swan

    #Birds #BirdWatching #Twitching #Nature #BirdsOfMastodon #Bird #Photo #Photograph #BirdPhotograph #Yorkshire

  31. S is for Smooching Swans

    Cygnus olor
    Mute Swan

    Almost making the perfect classic heart shape after they had been doing something else beginning with S...

  32. S is for Shimmering Shoveler

    Spatula clypeata
    Northern Shoveler

    I rarely get to pick the times I can go out to take photos and often end up out in the harsh light during the middle of the day. This last couple of weeks has been uncharacteristically hot and sunny by UK standards so a lot of the images I've taken have been of crispy ducks shimmering over an open water bath.

  33. S is for Sleeping Spoonbill Standing by 12 Skulking Snipe

    Platalea leucorodia
    Eurasian Spoonbill

    Gallinago gallinago
    Common Snipe

  34. R is for Redshank

    Tringa erythropus
    Spotted Redshank

    Very similar to the Common Redshank, don't often spot Spotted Redshank though

    #Birds #BirdWatching #Twitching #Nature #BirdsOfMastodon #Bird #Photo #Photograph #BirdPhotograph #Yorkshire

  35. R is for Redshank

    Tringa totanus
    Common Redshank

    One of the few waders that does seem to be reasonably common this year
