Welcome

You have found us. We are a secret group of crack birders who have turned our backs on the machismo, corruption, and backstabbing greed that constitute today's birding scene, and have united together to follow the True Path of non-competitive, collaborative and generally lovely birding-as-meditation-and-spiritual-growth. Consequently, we never see anything. Birds that land right in front of our noses, and which we can identify with our observer book, are written about here. Oh, and they have to be seen in - or from - the parish of Winterton-on-Sea, Norfolk, or on the walk round past East Somerton Church ruins and up the concrete track to Winterton Holmes (because it's a nice walk which we all do).

31 January 2010

A good day. Highlights included a 1st winter Mediterranean Gull in a field just north of Low Road (just out of the parish but viewable from within it - does that count??), Peregrine, Common Buzzard, a ringtail Hen Harrier, 12 White-fronted Geese south, 3 Egyptian Geese, a Woodcock in off the sea and 3 Common Cranes. Stayed out til dusk but no owls seen.
