2018

Not really done a great deal of birding over the last 7 months with adopting a rescue Bulldog & concentrating on turning the garden into a proper wildlife garden, only really been out with the camera a handful of times with a few visits to Hams Hall outflow in late winter for my annual fix of Siberian Chiffchaffs  a cracking Whinchat on 15th April at Whittleford Park & Ladywalk in early June for the Spoonbill.

Spent more time Moth trapping in the garden with some cracking new moths & some good local records.........
