30th May sounds OK to me, though it is probably the most likely time for a spring mega, which might lead to me, Bob and maybe one or two others not turning up...
Hi, Had two new ticks for my patch (Hampstead Heath) today and a possible third: 51: Whitethroat (2 singing males) 52: House Sparrow (Yessss!!!) The third was...
Hi Reuben, I know both songs pretty well but unfortunatley, for me at least - although it was a valiant attempt - your recording is just too brief to make a...
thanks Lol, I have just uploaded two more videos - the size limit for uploading files caused me to split the original video. Don't know if they'll help much...
Hi Reuben The recordings aren't exactly brilliant, as I'm sure you'll admit, and the fact that it's broken into 3 makes it more difficult, as you really need...
Thanks John, good guidance. Its frustrating because I was really pretty sure it was a garden warbler (having seen and heard at least 5 singing blackcaps...
Hi Reuben Maybe it's a combination of the poor-quality, short soundtracks and the tinny speakers on my laptop, but the bird in song in the first two clips ...
Hi Rueben, The recordings are difficult. I don't think it's a Blackcap, but I don't hear the "burriness" (American expression that sounds like it means) of a ...
Dear all I have been press-ganged (oops, I mean I have volunteered) to take over as LNHS bird recorder for the Kent sector (London Boroughs of Lewisham, ...
Hi. I have been out for most of the day for a spot of retail therapy for the other half. I knew that I had missed a C.Buzzard that flew through at lunchtime,...
What I should have told John, and to save any consternation amongst Kent-in-London observers, the LNHS has an excellent record exchange partnership with KOS....
Can someone post any details of the above bird, apparently reported at Holyfield in the Lee Valley sometime today? It doesn't seem to have come up on my pager,...
Getting a message telling me that the Londonbirders wiki site does not exist, when trying to upload. Not much around this morning - just after 1000: 3 Swift,...
Not a problem Reuben. Can't help much myself as my speakers make it sound like a Dunnock, hopefully you'll refind it. Des. ... files caused me to split the...
Hi Dom, Not personally seen anything about this on info services but it appeared on Wiki as at 'Holyfield Viewpoint before flying east at 10:45hrs'. Cheers, ...
Dear Reuben, You should consider a Remembird, I use one for getting bird recording at it works very well. The main problem I have is being quite enough when ...
Hi Rueben, The third recording sound like a sub song of Whitethroat, which I have heard several birds giving over the last few days. The other records are...
Patchlist update for Highams Park Lake for the last week or so - added Whitethroat on 24th April (53), Swift on 26th April (54) and Pied wagtail today (55). I...
I know this has been covered in the past but I told something very interesting on Monday. If you use Google Earth you can measure any straightline, so tonight...
If a bird passes over the recording area and I'm outside the area, I'd count it - the bird passed over the recording area. If I'm standing inside the recording...
A nicely prompt message back from London Zoo bird curator, John Ellis: 'Good morning Des, I can confirm that we still have one Raven so not ours ... '. Des....
Hi, I know that some records e-mailed to the previous Recorder have not been received by me , and I'm sure there must be unsubmitted records. So, if anyone...
Had three new additons for my patchlist this morning: 54: Lesser Whitethroat - male singing near top of Parliament Hill 55: Swallow - 1 flew North 56: Common...
I agree, the bird has to be in London, not the observer. If you're on the Space Station Mir and scoped London and could see a White-tailed Eagle fly past the...
