Fantastic views of Curlew Sandpipers y'day at @RSPBFrampton with the majority of the flock being on Middle Scrape, reserve management at it's finest🤌

The Sunbirds of Aberdare National Park & Kinangop were simply spectacular. The views of Golden-winged were everything I was imagining but also seeing Malachite & Tacazze just topped the day off.

Back in Leicestershire this week has been fruitful, starting with a YBW in the village but a visit to Eyebrook today resulted in connecting with the first-winter Gannet along with locating this Aythya hybrid (Common Pochard x Ferruginous Duck).

The Safari Park Hotel in Nairobi was a great introduction into birding Kenya, over 70 species personally recorded at the site.
Fantastic views of African Harrier-hawk, White-eyed Slaty-Flycatchers, African Paradise Flycatchers & Spot-flanked Barbets

Who'd have thought Merthyr would become hotspot this autumn, the Yellow-browed Warbler was still present late afternoon skulking in the bushes bordering the abattoir. Good find @_dsbirding
