My first attempt looking for Welsh Honey Buzzards went well! Really happy to see this bird in a previously unknown location. 🍯 Some Goshawk action too.

Rewarding visit to the Welsh forest where I saw the Honey Buzzard last week. This time 2 sightings of males. Last weeks bird was probably a female, it had multiple obvious bars in the outer primaries. Goshawk are common in the area. Sightings versus Sparrowhawk now at 12 to 1…

Another visit to the Welsh woodland yesterday produced the same dark chocolate female Honey Buzzard from two weeks ago (two pics on right to compare).🍫 Thanks to Jamie Partridge, Steve Roberts and the county recorder for all the info and encouragement! Leaving the area soon🫤

Stupidly good day at Holyhead with the legend Ken Croft. We saw 14 Yellow-browed Warblers! The look on his face when 4 showed together in the 'magic bush' said it all really. Not much time for photos but happy with a record shot of 2 together. @AngBirdNews

Choosing to take today off work definitely paid off once again at Holyhead. Lauren Evans and I found this Pallas's Warbler in the plantation at South Stack this morning. We are both very happy!

Still can't believe what happened at Holyhead Breakwater Country Park today. Lauren Evans's pishing worked fucking magic when this Red-eyed Vireo materialised in a Hawthorn in front of us!😁 A new species for both of us and Lauren's first American passerine!
