Was really looking forward to surveying the Northumberland Curlews this Spring, just have to hope that a silver lining might be a good breeding year with the moors being undisturbed, watercolour sketch. Take care all #curlew
Continuing our #LBCU tracking efforts w/ @IBOatBoiseState @cbbep @auduboncanyon we deployed transmitters on 1 male & 1 female #curlew in northern #CA Stay tuned as we find out where coastal California curlews breed! #TrackingTuesday #MigConnectivity #Tracking #Migration
For some reason this image came into my thoughts tonight a pair of foraging curlews & a redshank, on a winter windswept Northumbrian beach, watercolour. Have a great weekend all 👍
A trio of Curlews! FAR EASTERN CURLEW, LITTLE CURLEW and WHIMBREL all at Ma Chang, Beijing, this week. Just missing EURASIAN CURLEW (ironically the most frequent curlew in Beijing) for a full house.
Beach Stone-curlews are such charismatic birds, they'll often sidle up to take a closer look at you and then walk off indifferently! #drawing #australia #birdart #shorebirds #wildlifeart #australianart
Some local breckland Curlews from the past few days, for #WorldCurlewDay @WCDApril21 @waderquest
It's #WorldCurlewDay. Natural Historian George Balam in his 1912 book the Birds of Northumberland captured the beauty of #Curlews "A moor without a curlew is like a night without the moon, and he who has not eye for the one and an ear for the other is a mere body without a soul"
Sheep blarting hopefully for cake after the neighbour on his rounds through the fields.
Sparrows bickering over space in the roof of the barn,
A curlews bubbling call.
Monday morning 6.19, rush hour.
For me, engaging people is a 3 stage process, from heart to head to action. #BOU18TC #ornithology #wildlife #curlews Slide 2
Some sketches of Stone-Curlews! An excuse to draw some long legs! #waders @waderquest inspired me to draw more waders!
How do we persuade people that Curlews are a conservation priority, when they can see flocks of 100 or more in the winter? This blog provides answers!

Had to doa Stansted airport run so diverted to Cavenham Heath after, displaying Stone Curlews & a smart male Wheatear were a nice reward @suffolkbirds1 @swlanaturaleye @RareBirdAlertUK @BBCSpringwatch
"Day after day these autumn mornings, just as it grows light over sea and shore, begins a wild calling of many Curlews."

Stone Curlews in furrow, interesting shapes the clusters of birds make, perhaps the last day of good weather, v windy
Stone Curlews hiding during day in furrows in potato fields - becoming active and vocal at dusk - such peculiar birds
