Birder’s Twitter S3E58

Baltimore Oriole - Central Park 06th August

Listen to the slightly sweaty and shambolic episode 8 again here:

Jonny R drops an impromptu Birders Twitter live from The Ramble, Central Park! Having just finished a bird watching walk with Birding Bob.

Birders Twitter are 100% #TeamBob

Jonny H is fresh back from Spurn. With his ‘proper friends’.

Jonny R is in the company of America Robin and watches a Northern Flicker live on the call. Northern Flicker is Jonny H’s nickname.

Northern Flicker - Central Park 02nd August

Jonny R’s bangover means he can only see red birds; Red-bellied Woodpecker, Red-tailed Hawk and Northern Cardinal.

Red-tailed Hawk - Central Park 06th August

Highlights of the bird watching walk include; American Redstart, Red-eyed and Warbling Vireo and Downy Woodpecker:

Storm Petrel are the business.

Black Skimmer is the best bird that ever existed.

DDL persists with Sand Sandgrouse. Jonny R has gifted Jonny H and DDL lots of seagull paps.Which they do not deserve:

We are worried about friend of the show Daniel Branch. We’re here for you Daniel. Stockholm Syndrome is no joke.

NYC love owls including escapees.

Jonny H updates on all things Spurn - which is moist in anticipation of Migfest. Jonny R once found a Ring Ouzel from the pub window at Spurn and manages to mute Jonny H instead of himself.

DDL sea-watches the inner Thames; 5 Common Terns and 4 Cormorant. We’re speechless:

Jonny H enjoys puddle jumping and Short-eared Owls. Migfest is in one months time. All the cool kids will be there - including the #BirdersTwitter team.

Brilliance is literally free at Migfest.
