15 FEBRUARY:  THE RUBBLE BIRD

2/15/2018

​14:30:  Sharpness Docks, Severn Estuary, Gloucestershire (51.719788, -2.478289)
A first-winter male black redstart was eventually located at this traditional industrial site, where birds have spent the winter since I started birding the area seriously in 2003.  Black redstarts have never been proven to breed in Gloucestershire, although many breeding sites are inaccessible due to security reasons, being industrial in nature.  My article on Black Redstarts, written for Birdwatching, can be found on the Writing page.

    BIG UK LIST

    This diary updates my efforts to see as many British birds in the UK as possible in 2018, using IOC taxonomy.  The list itself is viewable at www.bubo.org and will be updated more regularly than this blog.
