Couple of observations from a walk into town:
Chaffinch - 1. First time I've seen one in the trees bordering that playing area on Sleaford Road
Jackdaw - group of 30 on the wing at the same time!
Very noisy lot of Herring / Lesser Black-backed / Greater Black-backed Gulls calling over the Witham.
My 'present' is in the form of photos. My Birdfair ones have finally been developed! Here's who I met:
Me and Bill Oddie (in a good mood both days he was present)
Me and 'Bearded Tit' author Rory McGrath
Me and Nick Baker (please revive any daughters who have just fainted)
Me with Big Cat presenter Jonathan Scott
And now.......... prepare yourselves!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is me with a starstruck fan of mine..... follows me everywhere, he does.......
And now a photo that's extremely potent, illegal and will cause some ladies to swoon most heartily.... ladies, do you have life insurance? Good! Here we go - take deep breath and open eyes....... NOW!
How on EARTH did I keep my camera still? Oh, that smile!!!!!! Oh, the.......... oh, the................ OH MY...................... wurrrrrrggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhh............... world gone twirly-whirly..... uh-oh, we're losing her!!!!!!
** THUD **
