- White-capped Woodpigeon and McDonald's diet Crow on the morning dog walk. #birds
- Felt raw at Kilvington lakes, never got above 2°, couple of early returning Oystercatchers, 3 Pintails, overwintering Redshank still, Stonechat and 2 smart 1stwinter GBBacked Gulls. #ukbirding

- First moth of the year. Agonopterix alstromeriana flying around in my car when I turned the heater on. #Teammoth
- Well done Hannah, well done Scotland. Now come on England!
- Marsh Harrier. Willowtree Fen. #lincsbirding
- Gt. Egret. Belvoir lakes.
- Branston, Leics. 14 Ravens, 8 Buzzards, 10+ Red Kites, swapping between feeding on the deck and perching in this tree. 2 Gt. White Egrets, Belvoir lakes. #ukbirding
- Catkins.
- Reposted by Dave Roberts.Great Grey Shrike at Fillingham, Lincs right now. It was reported as singing this morning, but I wasn't prepared for hovering 🩶 Speechless! @lincsbirding.bsky.social #LowCarbonBirding #UKBirding
- Another damp, dull, dreary, dank, depressing, dark, dismal, dreich, dim, dire, dreadful, dour day in Grantham but the Firecrest kept the sad syndrome at bay.😀 #lincsbirding
- Actually, I'm not sure it is staining?, this one was in the exact same puddle at Cut End three years ago. #lincsbirding
- Little Egret, with stains.
- Snow Buntings. R Witham haven. #lincsbirding
- Classic.
- Early start at the Witham mouth, sea very quiet but saw a Slavonian Grebe. Lots of waders. 4 Snow Buntings just upriver, 2 Cattle Egrets at the prison. #lincsbirding
- Snow Bunting. Witham mouth. #lincsbirding
- What a little performer the Grantham Firecrest is. Allows close approach (with care and stealth). Traffic thundering by just feet away. Occasional skirmishes with Goldcrests. #lincsbirding
- Home town birding. Peregrine on St. Wulframs, L Egret on the river, Firecrest still at Belton lane. #lowcarbonbirding #lincsbirding

- Monday motivation, checked on the local goodies! Long-tailed Duck at Kilvington-appsars to have moved on, last noted 14th. Brent Goose, appears to have moved on from Marston area. Intensive search for Firecrest at Belton eventually gave one individual. 📷 selfie by @lincssnapper.bsky.social
- Another in-depth study and photographic account from GPC. Really good read.
- WeBS count this morning at Marston stw. #lincsbirding @webs-gsmp.bsky.social
- The hide logbook is always entertaining at Woodhall Airfield. The Boxing day entry raised an eyebrow! No name against the Ring-billed Gull which I don't think was reported elsewhere. #lincsbirding #ukbirding

- Brent Goose Sunday, Pinkfoot today, surely Whitefront or Beanie soon. Gt. White Egret today also. #Marstonstw #lincsbirding
- The thought of a mass twitch in Quebec, Canada where a European Robin has turned up made me appreciate this little beaut on the patch today. I mean, imagine laying eyes on it for the first time. #ukbirding
- Short-eared Owl in Lincolnshire. #ukbirding
- Absolutely superb read here by living legend Graham! Such an inspiration.
- Daily checks of the local Goose flocks finally paid off, not with the expected brown Geese but a cracking 1stwinter Brent Goose lurking with the 'lags (rare inland). Marston stw. #lincsbirding #ukbirding #lowcarbonbirding
- Dipped on the Snow Goose around Deeping lakes, saw Long-eared Owls, Whoopers and Bewick's Swans, Green Sandpiper etc. #lincsbirding
