    Kempsey Thanks to STUART ANDREWS for pointing out the Short Eared Owls to me yesterday....they had left the roost and were in the field behind the roost when I returned from looking for the one that had earlier flown off. I saw a couple of fly overs but had to leave around 3.30 to get the bus...

    The Goosander could be the ones that were on Meercroft in Kings Norton as they have been absent the last few days.....although I did not look today......great spots for such a small pool....will have to pop in and have a look.

    Thanks Simon.........these old books are fascinating. I have a 2 vol set from the late 1800's when the only way for them to I.D. the birds was to shoot them...:eek!:...I do the same but with a Canon (digital). I got them from a Hay bookstore but they have been roughly re-bound and lost the title...

    Had another look for the Little Egret on Sunday morning but as usual the light was behind...either too bright or too dull...I'm never satisfied. When i got there it was on this side of the Cole and 1/2 way to bridge but soon mover to the river side as theres no way to look without it seeing you...
