27/01/2024-Big Garden Birdwatch, Warblington and Hayling Island Oysterbeds
Photos taken in this set are of; the gorgeous Black Redstart which made the dream of the past two weeks when we first saw it come true by turning up when I was doing the Big Garden Birdwatch one of my best ever birds seen in this annual survey I love taking part in, my first Rock Pipit of the year at Hayling Island, beautiful views at Hayling Island in the ethereal winter sun with dramatic sky and sunset scenes and the Hayling Island bridge looking nice, one of my first Cattle Egrets of the year which it was amazing to see at Warblington this week such charismatic and beautiful birds, Roe Deers at Hayling Island it was great to see a Fox nearby and interacting with them too with one of the Roe Deer's facial expression interesting to see as the Fox went by and a Little Egret at Hayling Island.
In one of my best ever Big Garden Birdwatches this morning it really was extraordinary with my joint highest ever amount of species seen in one with ten it was also great to see Goldcrest which was a garden first, 2 Blackbirds, Blue Tit, 17 Starlings, 5 Collared Doves, 5 House Sparrows, 4 Goldfinches, 2 Woodpigeons and a Robin. Then this afternoon it was also great to see my first Great Northern Divers, Long-tailed Duck the stunning bird we saw here in December and Black-necked Grebes of the year at Hayling Island Oysterbeds. Other highlights at Hayling Island were Great Crested and Little Grebe, Avocet, Curlew, Oystercatcher, Greenshank, Grey Plover, Dunlin, Turnstone, Brent Geese, Shelducks, Shoveler, Red-breasted Mergansers, Goldeneye, Song Thrush, Great Tit, Buzzard, daisy, gorse, teasel seed heads, thistle and yellow-horned poppy leaves with Wren and Mediterranean Gull heard. Little Egret, Pheasant, Redwing and Robin were other highlights at Warblington. A golden winter day of purity and natural bliss.

Common merganser and Red-breasted merganser, all spotted on Fehmarn.
The females have nice crest here which gets a windy treatment.

The Trumpeter Swan is not sexually dimorphic, which means females and males look the same. They are bright white all over with a black bill. They are the heaviest native bird species in North America, and can weight up to 13.5 kilograms or 30 pounds. They commonly nest on top of structures built by other animals, such as beaver dams and muskrat dens.
The Red-breasted Merganser is sexually dimorphic, meaning the females look different from the males. Its body is grey and its head is reddish brown with a shaggy crest. They have an orange bill that is thin and serrated, which they use to catch fish.
