    Verns Excellent Pipit Photo Had not seen this photo until tonight when Stu86 phoned me. Whilst I had not called it myself and after consulting messrs Harris/Tucker & Vinicombe, I have to agree that Rock Pipit looks favourable. For me, it's the buff outer tail feathers (white on mipit) and...

    Upton's First Nightingale Whoever located the bird first deserves a medal. If this is the bird from the all-dayer, I recall JTB driving down the track to the East hide on the Moors and flashing his lights to get our attention. Apart from the first all-dayer in 1991? I have not arrived any...

    CROFTY SENIOR HAS VAN TROUBLE As unimaginable as Ronnie O'Sullivan not attending the Snooker World Championships at The Crucible, it would seem that former Upton-hero, Stuart Croft may miss this year's all-dayer as he has broken down on the M5, junction 17 - the prognosis of the...

    LISTS, LISTS, LISTS.... I hope the viewers don't think we're obsessed with who has seen how many more birds than anybody else, it's all just harmless fun (at Upton Warren at least). However, the beauty of a little bit of friendly rivalry and banter is that it may just make you think about...

    Potential At The Moors This is an excellent suggestion and should open that corner nicely. The work carried out by all the "Tuesday-crew" has been superb thus far, but there is still so much un-tapped potential, it's just a real shame that we don't have carte blanche to speed things up...

    That takes the everyday Upton cake to a whole new level. Perhaps you can put in an order if we manage to get to the east coast John?

    'MINI ALL-DAYER TOMORROW' Tomorrow may well just be hot and tedious, but as I may not be able to make the September all-dayer, I'm striking out for some early Autumn glory, with an early start at The Moors tomorrow. I believe JTB will be covering the Flashes so he and I expect to wrap up the...

    Autumn All-dayer The "24 hour" reference originated from the first Spring all-dayer we did back in 1990/91 (Wheatearlrp/Upstarts 1979 will confirm date) Some of the lads stayed true to the 24 hour ethos and birded from midnight on the Friday to midnight on the Saturday, raising a fair few...

    The miserable Swedish sleuth wins the day - I'm off for my Wallander fix - this announcement better be good Phil!
