Nice one. I expect they'll be a few turning up in new places over the next couple of weeks as they head back east.

Bit late to the party but the much hoped for tundra Beans (3) and Euro White-fronts (8) turned up at Cors Caron (Tregaron Bog) today #CeredigionBirds
Twitched Baikal Teal at Llangennech and Pochard at Tregaron today. Both were year ticks!! Sign of the times.
First dazzling session of 2026 in my mid-Wales study area ( nr Lampeter) resulted in 9 Woodcock, 3 Jack Snipe and a Golden Plover. Great showing of mammals too with several hares, a couple of foxes plus single badger, polecat and otter @btocymru.bsky.social @birdsinwales.bsky.social
Spent the day bunting hunting in Norfolk to boost the year list 🙂
Expect I'll be down with work some time in Jan.
Thanks Neil, the same to you and yours.
Kicked the year off with a bit of 'out of county' with a nice combo of Talley Lesser Scaup and Dryslwyn goose fest. Tunda Beans and Euro White-fronts showing exceptionally well. #CarmarthenshireBirds
That's a cracking Welsh patch list. Nice one 👍
Another 23 Woodcock caught in my mid Wales study area nr Lampeter tonight. The real stars of the show though were 2 new Jack Snipe @birdsinwales.bsky.social @btocymru.bsky.social
That's rather smart 👍
Handy 😉
Over 50 Woodcock on circa 100ha of upland farmland nr Lampeter tonight. The most I've seen here in 5 years. 18 ringed plus a single snipe @birdsinwales.bsky.social @btocymru.bsky.social
I did wonder whether you might be thinking it was time for a family visit 🤔
Well that was worth a quick 'out of county'! BOC courtesy of someone in the dark. Scops at Killay.
That's pretty much how I thought it would end!
I think I know how this'll end 🤔
Palpita vitrealis, Scarce Bordered Straw and 5 Rusty Dot Pearls in this morning's trap at Ffarmers nr Lampeter VC44 @migrantmothuk.bsky.social
When are you getting here?
Top day at @spurnbirdobs.bsky.social - 1000's of thrushes including a striking part albino Redwing and a couple of stonking male Rouzels, some cracking Bramblings, a scattering of Yellow-broweds and a Glauc to round the day off 🙂
Congratulations Julian @penrhynbirder.bsky.social, so this is what you spend your time doing!
I'd say your photography is improving 👍
Found myself in Pembrokeshire yesterday so popped into Dale for a bit of Glibis action 😊
2nd Convolvulus of the year nr Lampeter VC44 @migrantmothuk.bsky.social
Vestal and my first Pearly Underwing of the year this morning plus 100s of craneflies. Nr Lampeter VC44 @migrantmothuk.bsky.social
Excellent work 👍
@spurnbirdobs.bsky.social doing the business these last few days with Sibe Stonechat just upt' road, ✅️ed Sun Dog (aka parhelion), saw a man on a roof and got my SEO fix 🙂
