Couldn't post this earlier as the site was unavailable, but one of our members tells me the Russell Square Firecrest was still present this morning, before...
Hi David I don't really get time to view the Londonbirders site these days, so I have only just seen your RN parakeet request. I will be back in London...
Mr de Silva ... good to see you. Des. ... days, so I have only just seen your RN parakeet request. I will be back in London tomorrow (I live in Kent these...
Hi, Now that the 2005 report is at the printers I am turning my mind to the 2006 report. As some of you will know I am the photographic editor for the Herts...
Hi Des Yes, now I have rediscovered my bins (found under a pile of BBs from 1997) I may actually be able to get out in the field more than once or twice a...
I am trying to contact Dusty Gedge, does anyone have an E-mail address or phone number for him. (It is in relation to Green Roofs). Thanks Gary A James...

2 December 2007 Hyde Park/Kensington Gardens. Came across an adult argentatus Herring Gull this a.m., associating with argenteus birds at the Serpentine; a...
Dear All, I received this message earlier and sent out texts to as many people as I could whilst decorating today. This area has lots of possible sites for a ...
Evening all It would be great if it was a WT Eagle but remember that Eagle Heights, just a few miles south of the Dartford area often loses it's 'larger' birds...
I've just had a phone call from Garry James to say that Pete Lambert has just found an immature Shag on West Warwick Reservoir, Walthamstow, and is watching it...
Got it. Franko's usually up for baiting rarities at twitches. He usually doesn't go further than a loaf of short-dated sliced bread for gulls, but if this...
It seems that Dominic is the lone voice in favour of 13th, compared with 3 preferring 21st, two of whom can't make 13th at all, (and Des who's not worried...
I have just heard of a Puffin in West London (KG6 I believe) about 10 days ago-ish. It was around for a couple of hours before becoming Gull or Crow fodder....
Hi all I wanted some opinions on a juvenile white-fronted goose that I found on Jubilee Pond on Wanstead Flats this morning. It was associating with Canadas,...
My Wallcreeper's and I cannot make the 21st, so will have to wait until January to reveal our sparkling crimson wings. May we wish all London birders a Merry...
Assuming a correct identification, I would have thought an immature GWF at this time of year in London was overwhelmingly likely to be wild. I understand there...
Cheers Paul. Are you the Leyton Paul? Anyway, when I first saw it approaching the pond, I just assumed Greylag and moved on. Then I looked again and realised...
I'd be happy to count it - a juvenile White-front after bad weather in early winter seems an excellent candidate for a wild bird, even associating with...
David Darrell-Lambert phoned about 20 min. ago to say he had a good candidate 1st yr R-b Gull on the football pitches, Hackney Marsh, near Spitalfields Market....
the honest answer is you'll never know. Single geese like this could be escapes as some do escape and get reported from various locations throughout the year...
Yeah wildfowl in general are a nightmare when trying to assess their credentials. This reminds me of an incident that I witness unfold whilst living in...
I didn't actually, the book doesn't have a picture, and BWP doesn't either. But the bird looked identical to the juvenile WF on top left of pg 41 of the...
I had a look today as I happened to be passing....no sign, which is probably a good sign! Maybe its reorientated? can't suggest a URL but just colour the pink...
The problem with single geese isn't that they are single but more are they are rarer species or not? If I saw a single White-front or Brent at the right time...
