This is no Farmoor, Otmoor or Port Meadow. This is Grimsbury. It's Grim up north!

There is a running total year list in the link above.

Please send in your bird sightings to the B.O.S. and/or to me directly for inclusion on the blog. If you have some photos you would like to contribute please let me know (contact via the comments box on the right if you do not have my email already). Thank you.

6th Apr 2025: Great Egrets

It's been a fairly good week with a few new species recorded.

On Wednesday morning I had 4 Great White Egrets fly over south, quite high and clearly moving rather than just flying from a roost to a feeding location. Later in the day Sandra also had 2 Little Ringed Plovers.

Thursday we had our first Great Crested Grebe of the year, which is oddly very late in the year, and JFT had 3 Little Ringed Plovers.

Ian found our first White Wagtail of the year on Friday morning and in the afternoon I had an Oystercatcher and a Little Ringed Plover fly over.

The same, or possibly another, White Wagtail was around Saturday morning and today Clive found our first Yellow Wagtail of the year.
