What a beauty. And, as you can see in the third photo here, clearly tagged. Good to know someone's keeping an eye on her. #BirdingScotland
And of course I got to get some photos of my favourite thing: birds looking right down the barrel of the camera like Jim from The Office. #BirdingScotland
Nesting season is well underway with lots of chicks and goslings about. #BirdingScotland
Lots of very good birds hanging out and nesting in RSPB Lochwinnoch today. Highlights include this Ringed Plover and Little Ringed Plover usefully standing side-by-side, a few Black-tailed Godwits, a handful of Redshanks, and this Northern Lapwing with three chicks. #BirdingScotland

Great to see everyone's favourite seabird back. Pretty early this year. Puffin, Fowlsheugh, Aberdeenshire.

I’m guilty 😕 so I’ve switched my settings so that I can no longer post an image without adding alt text. You can do the same in your settings.
