Redstart!


A male found on the Firs Trail at The Lodge by who other than Andy S!


Edit - the Common Redstart was actually found by a visitor, and Gary Thornton took the fantastic image above - SCB

  1. And here too! Just hoping I can relocate it at lunchtime - It will be a reserve tick!

  2. A splendid but typically skulking bird and a new addition to my Lodge list. 132 now, with 93 during 2011. A fly-over Crossbill was a bonus (but not new for the year).

  3. Nice - I've got one autumn record here. And there's a challenge within a challenge within a challenge for you too: Oakley-Martin Lodge v Moran Nunnery Lakes life list by end of 2011? Its 132 a piece at the moment! (We really should get out more. Or less.)

  4. You're on. I reckon 140 could be possible if wader passage is good!
