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).

Still no birds to report but a stunning "Garden Tick" in the form of a young Grass Snake found hibernating whilst planting my new Blueberry bush.
However, just outside the parish several Bramblings were seen down Low Road.
Welcome to the Natrix natrix garden club! Sadly my chances of seeing more seem greatly reduced now. Good to read a nature report from Winterton! Bit of a rarity these days. Peter

Is that a bush to replace the one Jill killed?
