    Caithness to Speyside

    I was due in Inverness last Friday so I decided to make a trip of it and do some birding en route and in down in Speyside. Set off early on Thursday morning and went to Dalchork forest. Found a black grouse on the lek site. Only one male but got some cracking views. As I was heading back to...

    Cozumel Thrasher

    Along with the serious human and economic cost from hurricane Wilma I'm wondering about the fate of the Cozumel Thrasher. Hurricanes Gilbert in 1988 and Roxanne in 1995, are thought to have virtually wiped out this species before it was 'rediscovered' in 2004. Lets hope Wilma hasn't seen it...
