Hi both, thank you for sharing your birding adventures around the country with us. Merry Christmas to you and looking forward to birding adventures 2024.👍
Thanks for all the birds not seen! If you make more videos, please - you don't need background music - the sounds of nature and comments are all we need.
What a great video looking back at so many great birds. So much amazing footage and photos. You certainly put in the road and foot miles! Still one day to get that firecrest!! So, 2024 is almost upon us...... 'Where we goin'?' ! (Sorry I couldn't resist it!) . Have a great new year and thank you for all the work you put into your videos!
Thanks for your comments and continued support, we genuinely appreciate it. not sure exactly what 2024 will bring, we still have to wait for the van to be looked at and hopefully repaired. Ultimately we are planning a big year, lots of miles, challenges, birds, megas and fun, keep watching it should be quite an adventure!
@@TheBackyardAviaryAdventures I am really looking forward to it. Thank you. I do hope the van isn't too serious and expensive. I wonder what these current storms might be blowing our way, birdwise!
Smew used to be common around the Suffolk coast. Some of those birds are escapees from captivity… as some of the ones would be extremely difficult to accidentally migrate here even if caught in the winds

Lovely overview! But isn't the first clip of the White-rumped Sandpiper a Little Stint? I see a white V over the back, miss the elongated rear end and also miss the chevrons on the side chest and flank. And it is definitely a different bird that the White-rumped in the second clip.
Just found this vid an ur channel really enjoyed it an I'll be watchin more the next few days 4sure. If ur interested theres currently a red breasted goose on Queens Park old boating lake Heywood nr Rochdale, u can get within feet of it as it floats around the margins. This yr I managed 2film my 1st Warblers from my grg window in North Manchester. Check out Rowetta the Robin I tamed n uploaded feedin from my hand and Bernice the Blackbird raising chicks inside my grg👌 Oh yeah an the recent Parakeets 👀
I saw the White Crowned Sparrow last year as well ,was there ❤❤

That was Awesome !!!!!
Thanks so much.
Thanks for sharing. So interesting. My birds are a bit different here in Africa 😉
That poor Booby will probably never see another Booby ever again 😢
They will be very different, I do like birding in Africa though, I have been 5 times in the past!
Hello, enjoy watching your birding exploits around the UK, so wishing you and your family a Great Xmas & New Year.
Thank you, have a great New Year

Merry Xmas to you both. Its been really enjoyable watching your journeys across Britain in search of stuff. Best of luck for 2024!
Thanks so much.
I had the honour of seeing a atlantic puffin in Sweden (they used to breed here but are now a rare sight in autumn)
Top twitching 👏

Excellent video
Really enjoyed watching your videos
Thank you fellow birder
Nice video. I think the Sabine's Gull is from before I watched your channel. Beautiful bird, nice footage.
Merry Christmas, Nigel and Kayleigh 🎄🎅

You may be right, they were both there. I will look when i get chance and put a comment on the video. Cheers

You didn't say why the Hen Harrier is so intensely persecuted. It's by the keepers of the grouse moors isn't it ?
Yes, you are right. I should have said that
