Having recently returned from leading my third winter birding tour to South Korea I have some time to reflect on different aspects of this excellent trip. While the big draw is to see large numbers of Red-crowned, Hooded & White-naped Cranes, Steller’s Sea Eagle, Relict Gull, Oriental Stork and many other rare and range-restricted East [...]

October 19th, 2018 Nick With a few hours to spare I took a short drive to Knole Park in Sevenoals, Kent, to see if I could find any Redwings which have started to arrive from Scandinavia. It was great that I saw my first one very shortly after I arrived but it took some time before I got a [...]

Early Morning Walk in the Woods – Austria Birding
October 16th, 2018 Nick One of the nicest things about arriving in a new place is finding some interesting habitat and going out to see what birds can be found there. I enjoy this far more than going anywhere in the expectation of seeing any particular species with the pressure that can put upon oneself which can spoil a [...]
