Came across this apparent Black-Throated Diver x Great Northern Diver hybrid, whilst carrying out Black-Throated Diver surveys in the Scottish Highlands this week. It was present with three other Black-Throated Divers and a pretty striking individual!

Pretty sombre sight this morning, the Brünnich's Guillemot is still in Scrabster Harbour this morning but looking a bit poorly...it did dive several times but with no real impetus.

EMPTY LEDGES. First visit to North Sutor colony revealed the extreme impact bird flu, storms and rising sea temps have had on seabirds. Cormorants down by 36% to only 86 nests, shags by 60% to 60 nests and Guillemots down by a massive 83% on last year.

It was nice listening to singing Thrush Nightingales in the local parks around Copenhagen last weekend. One showed well briefly in full song out in the open!
