A video - shot a few years ago - of a female Eurasian bittern (Botaurus stellaris) flying and calling above the territory of a male, who then joins her in the air; they then fly a short distance before landing, and then shortly afterwards, mating. youtu.be/4OTXIR7MrVA Rarely-seen behaviour (and even more rarely captured on film) #bittern #birding #birdwatching #RSPBotmoor @RSPBEngland @_BTO @BBOWT @OOSbirding @BBCSpringwatch #phonescoping #digiscoping

A grey day, well before dawn. Alone, I watched, mesmerised, as thousands of starlings (Sturnus vulgaris) exploded from their overnight roost🎶Nov 2024. Full version: youtu.be/qNaSlaHIWB0 @Natures_Voice @RSPBEngland @BBCSpringwatch @_BTO 40% #slomo #birding #starling

A very persistent kestrel (Falco tinnunculus) didn't want this barn owl (Tyto alba) on its patch a few evenings ago. @BBOWT @Natures_Voice @RSPBEngland @_BTO @BBCSpringwatch @bucksbirdclub #birds #birding #birdwatching #kestrel #Barnowl #digiscoping #phonescoping #flight 25% #slomo

I always enjoy watching a Common kingfisher (Alcedo atthis) hovering; even more so with some lovely late afternoon autumn light. @Natures_Voice @RSPBEngland @_BTO @BBCSpringwatch #birds #birding #birdwatching #kingfisher #digiscoping #phonescoping #flight 20% #slomo @bucksbirdclub

Nice to get the opportunity to try filming a peregrine Falco peregrinus, as it hunted amongst the flocks of waders (mostly Red knot Calidris canutus) on the mudflats of The Wash estuary, UK. Oct 2024. Thanks to @acorncarver for alerting me to its presence initially. 🔊 @Natures_Voice @RSPBEngland @RSPBTitchwell #RSPBsnettisham @_BTO @WaderStudy @shorebird_soc @WashWader @BBCSpringwatch

Sunday’s visit to Snettisham provided this lovely view of the sunrise, with sunspots (and distant transiting birds). #birding @RSPBTitchwell #RSPBsnettisham @RSPBEngland #phonescoping
