Very busy at work recently, means I’ve not had much time for birding.
Does look like Waxwings are finally making their way here and so fingers crossed I’ll be able to catch up with them soon. Crossbills on my list for the weekend too – maybe a trip to Bottom Moor.
I’m torn between new species and local patching, the recent work on the website has meant that I’m keener than ever to go out an visit Bennerley and EM but given the other species out there its a difficult choice….
Off to Poland again soon, so fingers crossed for a chance of birding between meetings again.
