Teesmouth Bird Club

Thanks. Yes, they are Isle of Wight birds. I've sent you an email for directions

A few more

Pair of juvenile WTE giving superb views in North Yorkshire

It is well known that tree creepers don't creep up trees. They hop. Both feet at the same time. I took the first two pics last year at Hutton Village which clearly shows the bird hopping up the tree. I took the third pic yesterday at Pinchinthorpe. The pic has not been altered or turned in any way. How come the tree creeper doesn't fall off?

A few more. Common Whitethroat, lesser Whitethroat, heron and buzzard

A few pics from my Pinchinthorpe Lockdown walks. All regular stuff but always nice to see. Blackcap, chiff chaff, willow warbler and song thrush

Watched this kingfisher at Pinchinthorpe ponds near the bird feeding station.

A couple of rather long distance encounters with local buzzards recently. One chasing a rabbit that made it safely down the hole and another with an adder which had no escape route

Saw this great spotted woodpecker carrying something and settled in a dead tree. It had wedged a pine cone in to a crevice and was hammering on it to get at the seeds.

Took this shot in October last year using Nikon P900 at full zoom. When viewed from back of camera I considered it a common buzzard and moved on. Much later, when sorting the dross on the computer from my camera down loads I looked a bit closer and it was obvious it wasn't a buzzard. If this is in fact a juvenile goshawk then I would consider it a significant record for Cleveland.
I would welcome any comments
This is the only pic I have

Group of about 20 in Kildale Woods feeding on Sitka and Pine cones.

Watched a couple of jays near Hutton Village. They were searching for acorns and then taking them to a new location, hiding them in the grass then covering them up with leaves.

A couple of barn owls from the local East Cleveland area

Found a great grey shrike when looking for red kites near Blubberhouses, North York's. The light was not good and continued deteriorating as the day wore on.

This female sparrow hawk took wood pigeon and devoured it in about 15 minutes
