Just back from a successful litter pick at Kelling. We managed 7 full refuse sacks of rubbish. Everything from Mars Bar, Nescafe, Maxwell House and Walkers were noted on the resident front as well as a vagrant Goud Appel carton, nice!
Other items of note included an Orange toilet seat; I mean come on, makes that dreadful Avocado colour look like Pearl White. Oh, and a Elizabeth George (novelist who's works were the bases of BBC's The Inspector Lynley Mysteries) novel, which Moss Taylor tells me was sticking very close to the Orange toilet seat for a prolonged period. Presumably a Desert Warbler - Desert Wheatear relationship never noted in washeduponabeachology.
Many thanks to Moss Taylor also, who was down there picking up masses of trash too and for him taking a load of our bags in his van to the tip. Much appreciated.
Also, I would like to send my thoughts out to the family of Cameron Bespolka. The young British birder who was killed in Austria this Tuesday. I am aware people die before their time all over this planet, but you seem to reflect that bit more when it is someone from our own community. Makes all the shit we give each other through this hobby seem very pathetic indeed.
Look after each other, look after your planet and enjoy your birds, guys.
Much love,
