I'm in receipt of some brilliant images of some equally brilliant birds which have recently been on and around the River Lune.
'Probable' Siberian Chiffchaff Tuesday 6 January. Howard Stockdale.
The header for this post - and the one above - is of a 'probable' Siberian Chiffchaff, found on St Georges Quay in Lancaster, and recorded by two local birders.
On the very same day 6 January, a 'redhead' Smew was an excellent find by another Lancaster birder. As opposed to the Chiffchaff, this little diver excited many a birder for a couple of days....What a difference a day makes!
I am grateful to Howard Stockdale for the permit to use his images in this post.
I'd sooner be birding, but unfortunately I'm not at the moment 😢
Interesting birds about and great pics, thanks for sharing.
