Fine evening south of islands with Oriole Birding charter: usual Big 3 - Wilson’s, Great & Cory’s Shears - but highlights for locals were 3 Sabs Gulls, Long-tailed Jaeger and dark-morph Pom jaeger. Plenty of regular seabirds, too.

Wilson’s off the stern of MV Sapphire y’day eve

More Wilson’s Petrels than Stormies today!!! The Wilson’s Petrels were on active migration, moving straight through. With the Petrels spending time around the chum and then away, ultimately heading south to the Southern Atlantic/Antarctica, so exciting to witness!

Great second day out with Scilly Pelagics and Oriole Birding. An amazing 29 WILSONS petrels seen with 6 dancing together over the waves, just stunning!! 150 Greats, 110 Cory's, 2 Sootys and a Pom Skua, my highlights.

Another mind-blowing day with Oriole Birding in the waters south of Scilly. 37! Wilsons petrels, 80 euro storm petrels, 350 Cory's + 130 great, 5 sooty, 500 Manx shearwaters, long tailed skua & yellow legged gull.

Last of three pelagics today with Scilly Pelagics & Oriole Birding, yet another stack of Wilson's, 37, total for trip 70!! Views today were immense, gotta love that yellow webbing. More great looks at the large Shears too, plus a nice 1S Long-tailed Skua & more Artic Terns - Wow!

Off to a good start today at Donges ringing station on the Loire estuary, FR, with over 60 birds on the first net round including 1 Aquatic Warbler and a BTO ringed Sedgie 🤞#acrola

Huge thanks to the teams Scilly Pelagics & Oriole Birding for a superb few days looking for seabirds off Scilly. 70 Wilsons petrels + lots of big shears. If you was some top quality pelagic birding I can't recommend these trips highly enough.

Wow, St Anges & Gugh are rat free! Great work Isles of Scilly Wildlife Trust The Duchy of Cornwall RSPB Natural England helping breeding Manx Shearwater & European Storm Petrel return to the #IsleofScilly Both seen on the Scilly Pelagics at the weekend too! 🙂 Bird photos: Roger Howell

We are almost ready to open ticket sales for this autumn's exciting "Nature's Recovery in Dorset" conference with BTO Watch this space. You can help us, we would love a photo which encapsulates our conference title to use in our promotion. Please post your best by reply 🤞 😀

Wonderful images of STORM who recently became the first GPS-tagged Spoonbill to fly from the Netherlands to UK. It's so nice to get such intimate views from the roost on Brownsea Island. Tracking data reveals she has explored much of Poole Harbour since arriving 6 days ago.

Lots of birds again this evening including Greata Shear, Cory’s Shear, Wilsons Stormy, and Long-tailed. Photos Joe Pender

Hey folks – the Club is run entirely by volunteers. We need new people to keep it alive and kicking! Our many followers on social media clearly value it. Membership's great value at £20 a year, but it’s not just your money we’re after – we need your unique input and contribution.

First tag of the season retrieved!!! 😄🎉🌊 a very exciting moment indeed. The first incubation-stage foraging track to be recorded from a #Faroese Storm-petrel - worth all the immense effort that it takes! Fingers crossed for more now! SEAGHOSTS Rob Thomas

Great video from Mya Bambrick of one of the Poole Harbour White-tailed Eagles from Bruno C. de Paula Ham Common on the Birds of Poole Harbour pop-up. What a privilege to see these from these urban reserves, such a great opportunity to connect with nature and enjoy a magical experience.

Nice to see a number of Elephant Hawkmoth Larvae popping up around the garden. Providing small wild areas/native planting/pond etc within the garden, even in an urban setting can benefit so many species. Gardens can be such a valuable resource to wildlife, please do your bit🙏

Rewarding offshore today despite total calm, with 1000s of shearwaters, Pom and Arctic Skuas, and with zero breeze still managed to find a Wilson’s! Photos Joe Pender
