We go searching for not only one rare tern, but 3! One mega rare Bridled Tern, one Very rare American Black Tern and the UK's rarest seabird, the Roseate Tern. We pick up some other new year ticks, and meet some great people.
That’s when I find birders annoying, looking over great distances often into sun and claiming they had seen the quarry bird when it was pretty impossible to tell one bird from another. Been in that situation a few times with so called birders arriving on site setting up claiming almost immediately and packing up and going almost straight away. Thank goodness for people like you who show genuine enjoyment from the birds not just the tick. Thanks for bringing these trips to us.
we nipped in but did not get what we wanted ( willow tit ), we were late back for the kids coming home so we had to rush. we are going to pop back in the next few weeks.
@@TheBackyardAviaryAdventures Not sure which way works best for you but I’ve always found Willow Tit around Elton Reservoir and Pennington flash. Had some cracking Spoonbills at Fairburn though it’s a great reserve.
Great video guys, what a great life you guys have. It's crazy about the Black Tern, what if the eggs hatch, that would be insane! and then what if the Black Tern went off and mated with Frankie the juvenile Starling!!
Another really good video. I'm wondering how many birds you have now seen in the UK? As you both put the effort in and are quite successful in your trips.
