I scan the campus flowerbeds for dead birds as I walk to work finding birds is sad, but one serious perk is noticing all the fungi currently exploding all over campus saw 22 different-enough-looking types to send photos into iNaturalist today, including some excellent bird's nest fungi action

Lytchett bay - a sunny morning with 3 or 4 ospreys hunting out over the bay. Two marsh harriers, a juvenile and an adult male were quartering the reed beds. @harbourbirds.bsky.social @dorsetbirdclub.bsky.social

Third time this year I've watched a Hummingbird Hawkmoth laying eggs on our Ladies Bedstraw, checked out many other plants too, finally resting for over an hour. Anyone know whether eggs are likely to hatch this side of winter? #ukmoths #hummingbirdhawkmoth #moths

“Exactly a year ago I stood in the same spot as today, looking at an ancient forest full of large Cedar and Hemlock, surrounded by dense beds of Devil’s club and ferns, listening to birdsong. https://wildsight.ca/2026/08/14/return-to-redrock/

Brothers Jonesy and Reilly are so bonded even their tails are intertwined. There are 2 beds but they prefer to watch birds from the same bed.
Sharon Kilzer I’ve been trying to get my garden in, around NZ’s Spring winds. So far I’ve reset the cosmos bed, asparagus beds, & the main vege square. I’ve also done the first big mowing-oof-& fattened up the wild pheasants. I’m trying to decide if I have one male bird, or two-maybe father & son?

Drew Cooper Another search of the Hedge Bedstraw in the garden last night resulted in a further 15 Hummingbird Hawk-moth (Macroglossum stellatarum) larvae, bringing the grand total to 23! #TeamMoth

Caught the train to Millbrook station for the Pied Fly at Marston Vale CP which spent the day feeding around the visitor centre trees largely unconcerned by human disturbance. Also a few Clouded Yellows about in the area #bedsbirding #lowcarbonbirding

I helped out with banding (ringing) migrant birds in reed beds at Falsterbo’s bird observatory last week. #falsterbofagelstation #sedgewarbler #falsterbo
