With migrants arriving in good numbers and the breeding season now under way we would like to remind everyone that it is an offence to disturb any breeding birds. We understand that contributors to, or readers of, this site would not deliberately disturb any wildlife. We would remind contributors that, during the breeding season, we will not post any pictures of birds that appear to be at or near a breeding site, we also will not post pictures of birds that appear to be displaying or birds carrying nesting material or food. This policy is designed to help protect all of our birds during what is a stressful and difficult time for them.
Thanks to Seamus McStravick for the picture of the Wheatear and to David Steele for the pictures of the Little Ringed Plover and Great White Egret:
