Birding Review April - June 2023

  Highlights of Second  3 Months of 2023.

This awful weather is probably in it's 6th day of gale force winds and heavy rain or drizzle.

I haven't had been out birding for.... forever so it seems.

I've had to tie my walking boots to the radiator in the porch - they are getting so restless - I think they are planning to "Scarpa".

Anyway best wishes for Christmas and may your birding God be kind to you.
