"Birds in my Backyard"

In het #Rottemerengebied bij #Zevenhuizen kun je diverse vogels spotten, algemene soorten maar ook zeldzame soorten kan je hier aantreffen. Het gebied is ideaal voor vogels kijken door de diversiteit aan leefomgevingen rondom de #Rotte en de #Zevenhuizerplas, zoals rietvelden en water.
 Zoals ik het noem, "mijn achtertuin"
Maar ook mijn " #localpatch

"Birds in my Backyard" A collection of memories of all the bird species I've seen in my backyard... "The Rottemeren"

The Shoveler count at Rushy Common & the Tar Lakes today was nearly a hundred. They're taking over!

Also, fake spring is lasting well - T-Shirt weather this afternoon!

Trotzdem ist ein Zähltag immer ein spannendes Erlebnis und guter Ausgleich für den sonstigen Bildschirmjob. Ich genieße es auch sehr meinen #localpatch dadurch immer besser kennen zu lernen. Viele Vogelbegeisterte fahren oft 100te Kilometer um bestimmte Arten zu beobachten. 3/

Goosander (female or juvenile) on my #LocalPatch bit of the Thames just south of Oxford yesterday morning. Diving with some success for a fish breakfast. Very pleased Judith encouraged me out of the house.

#lowcarbonbirding #localpatch update - a red footed falcon (juvenile) has been sitting there today, a new species added after several weeks - let´s see what the autumn brings - now at #142 at local patch
I have failed to get a good photo of spotted flycatchers on my #LocalPatch despite seeing them reasonably frequently. Yesterday had good views of a a family group flying in and out of a small tree catching flies (obvs). But in New Forest not local patch.

Very quiet on the birding front on #LocalPatch but did get a nice dragonfly - I think its a Migrant Hawker from comparing to other images (correct or confirm if you know your dragonflies - I'm in Oxford, UK).

Yesterday morning's #LocalPatch walk was dominated by a group of barn swallow's who I kept bumping into as I wondered along a path by the Thames.
Best attempts at photos 📷 ... (have certainly done worse before)

Greenfinch father getting breakfast for young yesterday.
They are a red list species so glad to see evidence of breeding and frequently seen on #LocalPatch. They will regularly visit our seed feeders through autumn to spring.

Yesterday's early morning #LocalPatch walk started with sunbeams inviting me down the lane. Lots of gold crest, whitethroat, chaffinch and blackcaps about.
