Gadwalls ‘quapimg’ as they chase each other around, Shovelers displaying.
2 Shelduck and a fluffy looking new Greg (GWE) getting ready for the breeding season.
New workings.

My first one was at Cley in about ‘85 , my dad took me to Norfolk for the weekend.
#TheVaccines last night in Birmingham a joyous sweaty riot
I know it’s 50 million years ago since I went to Field Mill on a Boxing Day (1989 I think), but when did they put a roof on the away end?
#Mansfield #MANvARS
Absolute scenes on New workings south. 3 Pochard😱🤯😳🤩
First ones for South of the river, and first ones for 4 years.
Add in 4 Goosander, 65 Tufties, 100 Wigeon and 60+ Shoveler.
CHAOS!
#northantsbirds #ukbirding
Day off, went to Norfolk.
Woodlark, Hawfinch and Brambling in the Brecks.
Firecrest (Norfolk ✔️) Scaup, LT Duck and the regular wildfowl and waders at Titchwell.
Even saw the Tawny Owl.
#norfolkbirds #ukbirding
Pfffftttt Spurs are absolute dog wank.
#TOTvCRY
After Sarr was offside by his nose🤷🏻♂️
I was thinking who has or had the biggest conks in football.
Phil Thompson, Poborsky, Zlatan.
#oyBignose #footballsbiggestnose #TOTvCRY
Bernard Lacombe should have bolts in his neck!
They was robbed by big Harold Schumacher.
Don’t think there would have been any call for VAR on that one😬😬
Brimstone (5+) Chiffchaff singing and a Treecreeper in the green bits of the new build estate on the edge of Towcester on my lunchtime run.

Best bird of my M1 commute so far.
Merlin doing the flickery stalling attack flight over junction 14 of the M1.
Technically not on my motorway list though 🤦🏻♂️
#bucksbirds #ukbirding
Does Harvey Barnes have a chant hue to his hair?
I thought when I saw him destroy the Millers for West Brom he was ginger.
#HarveyBarnesBarnet #NewvMun
And, he’s from New Cross.
Which is Millwall territory.
My Grandad was from Bermondsey and watched the Lions in the 30s.
4 Pintail, 2 Oycs, big uptick in duck numbers. It’s happening people, migration is go.
New workings.

I’m not saying that both my children have left university, but there will be signs!!
#poshcheese
Finished #smallprophets last night.
Absolutely brilliant.
But , how can there be a 2nd series?
Michael in Canada, Kacey in Australia, the prophets no longer and all the other magnificent characters without a story 🤷🏻♂️
Ben Fogle/ Graeme Souness job share.
Behind the chunky knitwear Fogle dreams about Nuclear proliferation.
Souness is just angry.
If the NHS collapses over night, I’m afraid it’s my fault.
Missed my doctors appointment cos I thought it was tomorrow and now I’m one of ‘those‘ people 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
#sorryeveryone
Phew, just got the RNG before it buggered off.
These are incredible! But obviously not toasted, cos who wants hot strawberries?
Imbedded, so I’m guessing that’s Wiltshire or Somerset rules🤷🏻♂️
THE FUTURE
Could have done with the geese at Denford, but I missed the lay-by 😬, but I saw the Bean goose at Islip in January.
Great morning in the county.
The big hooted Red necked grebe and the now super shiny RN Duck at Kinewell.
All the way over to Ravensthorpe for the Slav Grebe.
Summer Leys, Redshank and Oyc back making a racket.
Then the new workings and found a 1st winter Caspo. Site✔️
#northantsbirds #ukbirding
Can’t imagine it’d get the urge to leave tonight, in the great deluge we’ve got at the moment.
First port of call tomorrow morning.
My disappointing ornithological February continues.
Finished work early, did a circuit of Clifford hill on the way home. Missed the Lesser Scaup and the Smew🤷🏻♂️
5+ Goosander though.
Big day tomorrow or it’ll be the worst month in years😬
#northantsbirds #ukbirding
Also the sample used on Goldie lockin chains ‘your mothers got a penis’.
But you all knew that , right?
Live music on a school night at our age😬😬😬
#theHowlers at #Esquires last night.
Very good
Chiffchaffs singing in February!
World’s gone mad!
