    Feeling guilty when birding far from home

    I totally get it...on your long haul flight - the plane isn't emitting say, 92Kg per passenger per hours flight...your plane is (based on an average occupancy of 330 passengers) emitting 92.5kg/hour created by nasty "tourists" and 0kg/hour created by 2 "eco-tourists" Obviously (given long haul...

    Feeling guilty when birding far from home

    You could twitch the length and breadth of the country week in week out for rarities for the emissions of a single long haul flight...so perhaps you've got it the wrong way round?

    Year listing "British" birds

    Whilst its a fine idea and will be very enjoyable taking you to lots of great sites (Scottish Highlands etc etc)...the idea that you're differentiating yourself from typical "twitching" year listers is problematic... When i've done a "big year" and indeed everyone I know thats done one...has...

    Dogs.Should they be allowed on nature reserves?

    How many Nature Reserves are purely "reserves" with no footpaths/foreshore access rights/agreements for public/common use etc? Some...but not THAT many I'd suspect...

    Birding/Twitching and Global warming

    I tend to think (especially as my car has pretty low emissions) that I can drive to Cornwall/Dorset/Norfolk/Yorkshire etc an awful lot of times before i'm even close to a return flight to Costa Rica/India/Gambia etc... So have at it!

    Long-tailed Blues Brighton etc

    I've been told the Fenced off area between Lancing Station and the adjacent Asda are a good bet - but its a binocular job (so perhaps not conducive to photos) I'm in Epsom tomorrow with work so will probably give it a bash (weather dependent) as they're still a "lifer" for me...I'll report back...

    altimeter watches

    Whilst not scientific - I've owned both a Casio Protrek and a Suunto Core All Black... (I wanted the Altimeter function for the opposite reason as you - I do alot of Caving and anted to know how far DOWN I'd gone :) ) Anyway...the Suunto Core is a better watch overall...comfier, easier to read...

    Birdguides new system

    Not at all impressed...I thought at first it was me...that I just couldn't find the functionality I wanted and needed to play around to "get-it" BUT actually the functionality of the new site is WORSE than the old site... You can't simply "Order" the records by clicking the top a column...as you...

    Norfolk Dragonflies

    I'm over in Norfolk Dragonfly hunting Tuesday...just wondered if ther'd been any more recent reports of the RVDs at WInterton or the Lesser Emperor at OLB? (Particularly keen on the later as it s anew species for me!) Given the weather and the weekend i thought a few more people might have been...
