Hello from Birmingham (1 Viewer)

[BrummyBirder]

Hello Everyone,

Phillip here from Birmingham, UK. I have only been seriously birding again since january 2023 after passing my driving test although I started this hobbie (now obsession) over thirty five years ago at aged 13. I have also just started a blog at BrummyBirder dot com and todate my life list consists of 113 different species (im sure its a lot more than that but my early notebooks from my teens have since been misplaced).

This is me with my wife Louise at our local pub in Sutton Coldfield. My local patch is Ladywalk NR and I can be found there at least once a week.

Happy spotting all.
Phillip
