Would appreciate comments on this creature please, photographed in Lincolnshire yesterday. Could it be a Pearly Green Lacewing?

Broad-billed Sandpiper is always so pretty, especially so in this near-breeding plumage. Digiscoped this morning in Maayan Zvi through Swarovski Optik ATX85 חרמשית

A roosting Nightjar was found today behind the Church at Kilnsea. Viewing was difficult, but worth the effort.

Always nice to see a Black-necked Grebe at an Inland reservoir. This one was at Covenham today.

A female Scaup has been lingering for several days in the Pyewipe area to the south of the Humber estuary and today I had my first views of it, just as the sun peeped out from behind a cloud.

I'm sure that there are better images to come, but pleasing to have seen this White-tailed Eagle at Aughton today. Always distant, but the sun was shining! Happy New Year to all friends and fellow birders!

A second visit for the Black-faced Bunting at Spurn today, after rain spoiled Monday's attempt somewhat. Did much better - and also had good views of a Merlin!

A post on the Lincolnshire Bird Club WhatsApp group yesterday evening reported that 9 Common Cranes had flown into Alkborough Flats at dusk, so I tried my luck this morning. Arriving at 0600, I waited for dawn - and the Cranes were still there! Last seen flying south @ 08.15
