    Nice one Ian - I had kind of given up on this thread as X still rules it seems but great to see your input and photos. Last year I had Yellow Wagtail and Wheatear on the paddock where the pigs are kept near the fishing pools at the back of Rowberry Garden Centre. Cheers

    Nice one Josh. Good to hear re Crossbill and encouraging about Spotted Flycatcher! I think the woods are under watched, especially in spring so good to have another pair of eyes

    Careful Dave that sort of talk of social responsibilities will get you called all sorts of names on the new improved right wing version of Twatter. Well out of that one! I agree and I suspect some of these measures will come, but only when we're staring in to the precipice

    This may be of interest-link to a report by Eliot Howard (amateur ornithologist who lived in Kidderminster) who did a dawn chorus walk in Chaddesley in 1899. Below that a link to a video I made of the dawn chorus there in May this year. The contrast in species is quite staggering...
