Why do so many UK tv programmes play American birdsong over outdoor scenes? Woodthrush perhaps an unknown breeder...

A very late red admiral just fluttered by work in Wrexham. Perhaps my last butterfly for a few months. @BC_Norfolk

This is better than any made up eagle, petrel or bustard. #birdsoftheheath

Went for a wee behind a lay-by hedge in Cambridgeshire today and had a flock of roughly 70 yellowhammer feeding next to me. By far the best wee I’ve had this year

My first woodcock of the autumn flying down the Norwich to Wroxham road. Safely above the cars...

Despite living in the “countryside” I have barely any blackbirds or song thrush. And no hedgehogs. Slug pellets applied to adjacent grass fields is probably why

The world in uproar cos a sheep has been shot (not saying I agree) yet so many oblivious or unbothered by countless raptor and mammal killings in the name of grouse shooting

I’ve joined the @gwentwildlife #NoNewM4 campaign to save the Gwent Levels – have you? The new motorway will destroy Wales’ equivalent of the Amazon rainforest in terms of diversity of wildlife! wtru.st/2Oact5m

7 little egret west was a new garden bird from my cup of tea vismig. Redpoll and some gentle@movement of redwing and chaffinch too

Chiffchaff singing in Olympic park. Cake and coffee all day in the sun whilst year 11 do their fieldwork. If only every teaching day was like this

Such a beautiful day, a local walk resulted in me seeing all the wonderful hedgerows of fruit flailed to death and the badger id been watching all summer hit by a car. The English countryside sucks and being passionate about it can too

Massive thanks to @TheGreenJeanie for sending me a selection of seeds for the bees in my new garden. How very kind! 🐝

While not major for some people. This morning’s marsh tit was my 79th garden specie this year an an absolute gem in the 🌞 nice way to end the holidays

Common sandpiper, curlew and lapwing in my part of the Wensum today. Slim pickings for some. #whenyouredealtaninlandpatch #noscrape

2 grey partridge adding themselves to the Sparham garden list today. First I have seen in the area. Hobby and sparrowhawk adding to the show too

Marsh harrier, hobby and ten common buzzard over Sparham village and garden this morning. Raptortastic

4 green 3 common sandpiper @Pensthorpe this am. One common snipe and amazing butterfly gardens but obv none flying in the rain.

Please sign if you can spare a moment

Bought a bike last week to reduce my birding by car. Lots of local wildlife found including 5 new purple hairstreak colonies. Cut it short to rescue lots of toadletts tonight and rewarded with mum and cub badger enjoying the rain after
