Beautiful Daurian Shrike at Brancaster this morning. Nice bonus that the Dusky Warbler just up the coast path showed quite well, for a Dusky!

After the big arrival of 'grey geese' last week, there are still a lot of Russian White-fronts and a few Tundra Beans lurking amongst the hordes of Pinkfeet in North Norfolk currently. Always nice to see Beans!
The highlight of today's trip up Blakeney Point, a freshly arrived Long-eared Owl
Enjoyable and interesting week spent on Colonsay. Migrants very limited (couple of Lap Bunts and a few flocks of PB Brents), no yank waders (all on Tiree), but some seabirds (Sabs, Pom, Sooty) and a nice selection of residents (Golden + WT Eagles, Chough, Hen Harrier, LEO, Twite)
Collared Flycatchers are very common in the urban parks of Sofia in August. Lots of variation in amount of white on primary bases (only some with the classic club shape) and median covert tips. All three ficedulas are occur on passage but identification much easier in spring! 🇧🇬
