During the 4 day weekend, I attended 2 events:
11th April .... guided walk at EWT Gunners Park .... see here
12th April .... South Essex Ringing Group ringing event at Wat Tyler Country Park .... see here
In addition, I independently visited the following:
13th April .... my St. Nicholas Church local patch site .... see here
14th April .... RSPB Rainham Marshes .... see here
Over the 4 days, I recorded 80 species and this included 9 additions to my 2025 UK year list taking it to 134 species:
Nightingale
Swallow
Sedge Warbler
Reed Warbler
Willow Warbler
Common Whitethroat
Lesser Whitethroat
Bearded Tit
Common Tern
The bird of the Big County Birdwatch 2025 for me was the stunning male Bearded Tit at the South Essex Ringing Group ringing event at Wat Tyler Country Park and I make no apologies for posting a photo again!
