Eleven of my favourite photos I took in November 2023 and month summary

The photos are of; mushroom at Lakeside Country Park, sunset at Milkham in the New Forest, Mute Swans at Weston Shore, autumn leaves at Lakeside, shaggy scalycaps at Lakeside, more autumn leaves at Lakeside, Mallard at Lakeside, teasel at Lakeside, Fallow Deers at Bolderwood in the New Forest, ivy in Winchester and Herring Gull at Lakeside.

November was a month of splendour for me, from the spectacle of watching a Short-eared Owl quartering at Farlington Marshes to the vibrant autumnal colour that blanketed the landscape. It was another very strong month of observing mushrooms for me from amethyst deceiver in a very strong year I've had for them to shaggy scalycap and many more enjoyed. Flowers such as gorse, wild carrot, white deadnettle and daisy hung on to bring some nice colour to my walks still with hawthorn berries, rose hips and memorably lots of holly ever present. The nights drawing right in has brought some special sky scenes to enjoy with it being a great month of moons and rainbows for me too. There was still a sprinkling of insect sightings with the likes of Red Admiral butterflies and Common Darter dragonfly in sunnier parts of the month, with it being another great month of spiders especially the Long-bodied Cellar spider seen well many times at home where it's been notable to see Grey Silverfish too.

The return of Redwings and Fieldfares easing us into winter has been notable in my month's birdwatching, with Brent Geese too. It was a special day at Farlington Marshes at the heart of the month also getting amazing views of Bearded Tits and Marsh Harrier. On my Lakeside walks I have gone nicely into the exciting birding days of winter with different birds being about, most notably the two redhead Goosanders which it has been an honour to see a few times so close to home. Cormorant, Kingfisher, Mistle Thrush, Grey and Pied Wagtail, Siskins and returning Tufted Ducks have been other Lakeside highlights this month. Long-tailed Tit and Kestrel were other standout species this month. For mammals across the month at Lakeside and in the New Forest I was treated to gripping views of charming Roe and Fallow Deers seeing a young Roe at Lakeside and rutting action in the forest with the Fallows. I saw a fair few Grey Squirrels and enjoyed New Forest pannage pigs again too.

I think there’s also a conversation to be had about how people think androgyny is waify and thin and wolf cuts and eyeliner. like some people are butch. some people have crew cuts and body hair and tits to the moon. or beards and hourglass figures.

i feel like everyone is all uncomfortable seeing people who are androgynous in a non tiktok kind of way but thats most of the androgyny i know! i know normal people who arent put together 24/7 who are androgynous in sweat pants and sundresses and first thing in the morning. there is more than one way to be androgynous and it isnt always a choice.

11/11/23-Farlington Marshes

Photos taken in this set: 1. The reedbed. 2. One of a few delicate and absorbing charms of the reedbed which we were fortunate to see today, a neat male Bearded Tit. I love seeing these birds and it was a very pleasurable few minutes watching them with male and female seen, seeing them flit around in the reeds with the lovely see-saw moments as the reeds bent and lowered under the bird's weight. It was magical just seeing the reeds moving in moments they dropped down out of view too. 3. Chamomile. 4, 5, 9 and 10. Beautiful views here, it was notable to take in the water at the lake among the fullest I've seen it after recent weather with the water rising through a fence, some delicate clouds floating over the landscape in blue bits of sky, creamy sky scenes as the sun sat just behind clouds illuminating the mudflats with the tide out below and nice views of the Spinnaker Tower. 6. A bird I had really hoped to see here today, my first Brent Geese of the season with Canada Geese behind, I love the brents it was so key to my interest building when I was left spellbound by watching the spectacle of hundreds flying over here in my early birding days as a kid. They are one of my favourite autumn and winter visitors and autumn and winter would not be the same without them, a key bird here so it was really good to welcome them back. I got a brilliant view of some flying over closely at one point. 7. A Kestrel we got fine views of as it landed on the wood of the viewing area which I'd not seen before. Great moments with a bird I'd had a good year for. 8. Another bird I am honoured to have seen today, a dignified and ravishing Short-eared Owl which paraded with characteristic low flights over the rich grassland coming amazingly close and it was astonishing to see it sat on the post which I'd not seen here before. We've been spoiled with how well and how many times we've seen them here in 2023 and also towards the end of 2022 once and how often we've seen them over the past seven years and today was one of the most powerful experiences seeing them.

Today got me thinking that Brent Goose, Bearded Tit and Short-eared Owl for me are the three main stars of this fantastic nature reserve which is close to my heart and another of the key species to see here in winter which I associate with the reserve a lot is Pintails and I was also so pleased to see them today a key winter duck. I feel so lucky to enjoy all of these four key species here in a day. Other key birds seen today were a few Linnets, another one that's become a key Farlington species and another of my favourites Marsh Harrier, Wren, Robin, Blackbird, Grey Herons, Little Grebe, pleasingly loads of Lapwings, Redshank, Teal, Gadwall, Shovelers flying and the Barnacle and white goose that are often here and hanging out together. Rabbit, hogweed, gorse, wild parsnip or fennel and teasel seed heads were also nice to see. Energetic bursts of Cetti's Warbler calling was lovely too. It was great to speak to many others including people we've met before watching the birds today.
