Got lots of tits in the garden currently but missing the visitors from earlier in the year. Anyone else looking forward to autumn and what the new season will bring?

Pelicans have successfully bred in St. James park having been introduced and restocked over a few hundred years.

There was a good amount of bewilderment from onlookers yesterday!

So happy to see this noisy little bird finally have a dip in the bath 🥰

Look at this chubby little fella. He's so round I thought he was a pigeon at first glance.

But a King Fisher…….

Joined me on my lunch break today

Very eastern tip of Kent.

This has me stumped. I’m very familiar with red phase feral pigeons but this one was the size of a wood pigeon and when it flew off it was followed by another regular wood pigeon which makes me 99% sure this is not a feral pigeon. I’ve just never seen one this colour before. Is this possible?

How rare are they in East Yorkshire as I’ve never seen before

Edit : thanks for all the info on this Moth! Hopefully you’ll all agree a lovely sight even if maybe accidentally inappropriate for a bird group 🦋

Sorry for bad quality, anyone know what bird this is? Thaught it might be a baby wren but doesnt really look like the google images, thanks!

Swallows flying around along the dam. There were quite a few young about.

They have these hides with the feeders.and there were all sorts up close. Siskins, chaffinches, nuthatches. There were also greenfinches, blue tits, coal tits and probably more.

There were a few of them, but this is the photo I was able to snap. It was flying between bodies of water.

What bird is this wonderful specimen, and would I be able to see it elsewhere in London?

Thank you!
