    Hi Adalia - not an alias for the young man from Westphalia? - I guess that Dahlia had an 'h'. We found a very unusual Ladybird on the golf course on Friday last. There was a glut of Harlequins. I am waiting for a photo from a colleague. It was all red with two (only) large central circular black...

    Sacred Ibis in Surrey

    This bird first appeared on the 14th fairway of my golf club(1 mile foem M25!) on 26th July 2005. It was feeding with 30 Canada Geese and had no identification. It remained for several weeks and seemed equally at home socailising with our breeding Greylag and Egyptian Geese. It returned many...
