A feeble 50 species!
I just put together my year list so far, and so far there are just a feeble 50 species on it; proof if ever I needed it that I’m not getting out enough. My excuse is that haven’t used my car to drive miles away in search of birds and by not doing so I am reducing my carbon emissions in order to help birds. In fact I have used my car to go birdwatching on three occasions this year, but to sites only a couple of miles away; 3 miles at most.
Tomorrow I think I will go for a walk though and see if I can find some “year list birds”. It shouldn’t be hard for goodness sake, I haven’t even seen a Grey Heron yet!
