Farmland birds are in decline across Britain and indeed pretty much everywhere in the world I have been. When I am back in the UK I am able to take a lot of walks through arable farmland which still has a decent population of some farmland species that are in decline across their ranges so [...]

Birding Highlights of 2017
January 1st, 2018 Nick Happy New Year! I am looking forward to what I have planned ahead in 2018 with a birding trip starting in Northern Thailand in a few days and a two week trip to Myanmar at the end of the month, but I also looked back to some of my birding highlights of 2017. Birding in [...]

Survey of Calling Male Corn Buntings – Bird Behaviour
July 3rd, 2017 Nick More Corn Buntings! Many people may be wondering what is my obsession with what is a rather dull-coloured, sparrow-like bird regarding the fact that I have posted quite frequently about this species here, on my Facebook timeline and on my Twitter account.

Twitching at Frensham Common – British Birding
June 13th, 2017 Nick I very rarely go twitching but today was an exception. Having dipped on Red-footed Falcon last week at Minsmere a second chance presented itself with another bird present at Frensham Common, in Surrey, over the last few days. The plan was to get there early, which was somewhat spoiled by traffic on the M25 but [...]

Early Summer Walk – British Birding
June 12th, 2017 Nick One of the pleasures of being back in UK in late Spring/early Summer is the abundance of wildlife, wildflowers and fresh foliage all around and walking in the area I grew up in brings back a lot of memories of when I used to go on Sunday morning strolls with my father.

North Wales 4-day Trip, 23-26th May 2017 – British Birding
May 27th, 2017 Nick Although I am lucky enough to spend a large amount of my time on birding trips in Thailand and other parts of Asia, I do not get that much time to spend birding in UK and in particular I spend very little time in my home country in Spring when it is easier to see [...]

Old Lodge Nature Reserve, Ashdown Forest – British Birding
May 17th, 2017 Nick Just 45 minutes away by car from my mother’s home I can get to Ashdown Forest. This is a great place to find a number of woodland and heathland birds that are not easily seen in Southern England outside of the best habitat and today I made a visit to this very scenic area. In [...]
