It’s #WorldGaelicWeek #SeachdainNaGàidhlig so we thought we’d share one of our favourite bird's names in Gaelic! Sound on for this one 💛 📷 Deargan fraoich / Goldfinch

While no sighting of the avocet, I saw about 24 species at the Eden estuary today, including three new on the life list - pintail, black-tailed godwit, and Brent geese :) That’s the fun thing about being quite new to this, every outing is a chance at a lifer 🤭

Down to the Eden estuary to look for the avocet, no such luck! I hope it stays around so I get another chance. It very much could be here and I wouldn’t notice to be fair lol

While I’m bird posting, here’s my Hawk Lords deathwatch tech marine (painted incorrectly lore-wise I know), with extra bird to make him extra birdy. #warhammer40k #spacemarines

Thought I’d share this gouache painting of a genestealer I did a few months ago, still very happy with how it turned out :) #warhammer40k #warhammerart #tyranids #gouache

Thinking of trans people today, the attacks and bigotry they'll endure over these years, and the failure of mainstream media and greater society to behave with decency and offer support to the marginalized. We must be brave, take action, and listen to those who ask for help, for the good of us all.

3 days to go until the #BigGardenBirdwatch! Last year’s 3rd most-spotted bird was the shimmering Starling. 😍 Will you spot one this weekend? There's still time to sign up: https://buff.ly/4gXUE3y

some birding highlights for 2024 - my 100th life list species, a beautiful little egret - a spotted sandpiper was my first rare spot - Great white pelicans while on holiday in London, a really special sight - some bearded tits made an appearance at the Tay reed beds #BirdingScotland

Arctic Terns travel the equivalent of three trips to the moon in their lifetimes. We don’t want to live in a Scotland without these incredible seabirds. Tell the Scottish Government how important it is to act now: https://action.rspb.org.uk/page/154240/action/1?ea.tracking.id=RSPB_Scotland_Bluesky

25 years of wader declines in Strathallan, Scotland. One of the most depressing WaderTales blogs I've written but demonstrates the huge value of long-term surveys. wadertales.wordpress.com/2017/11/30/2... #BirdingScotland

Got my 100th life list bird species today :) not a huge number really but my first big milestone, and one that I really wanted to reach before the end of the year. This little egret had the honour 🫶🏻 #UKbirding #Fife #birding
