This Chaffinch had an 'X' on its side and I couldn't stop staring at it. 😂

Another day out with Dave B and we didn't dip a Dipper..... see what I did there?
This species was one that helped to get me hooked
on bird & wildlife watching. Always a pleasure to see one, especially one so still. I don't think I've ever seen one stay still for so long.

Apart from putting together that superb (😂) Inner Farne Birds video, I spent my Sunday on #Dartmoor.
Many Willow Warbler, 2 Spotted and 1 Pied Flycatcher were the highlights. #UKBirding #Birds #nature #wildlife #Devon #BirdsOfMastodon

Inner Farne birds - mostly Puffin doing Puffin things (disappearing down burrows, pooping, pairing up, loafing) but Arctic Tern establishing territory, a marauding Lesser Black-backed Gull looking to scavenge food from Puffin and Grey Seal also.
I went with Billy Shiel's Boats out of #Seahouses.

“This should go well in the bedroom”. Puffin on Inner Farne, Northumberland. I’m hoping I’ve got some ‘proper’ footage but this straight from the iPhone….

A rather fine two hours on an East Devon Pebblebed Heath. And then a Yellow Shell resting by my front door when I got home. #UKBirding #wildlife #nature #Birds #Devon #Moths #birdsofmastodon #mothsOfTheFediverse #moths
