Just post bird news from my local patch and land, get some good birds too ...but there's a couple on your land that I don't have as breeders , but just as visitors

That's quite a garden you've got there Marijus. I look forward to hearing more about it.

Marijus, you will be having bus loads of BF members turning up on your doorstep with these birds on your land. Especially with the Capercaille and Montagus Harrier.

Well anyone is welcome!

now theres a lot of birds and in your garden i wonder what birds dont breed there?
as in just stop by for a few mins before flying off again

Hi Marijus

A very big welcome.. Looking forward to some daily (if you have time) reports from you! What a fantastic piece of land you have there ... think the WTEs, Cranes and Capercaille do it for me especially... (I'll be the one sitting behind Marmot on the minibus arriving on your doorstep in due course :king: )


.. if you were to post your reports in the 'Your Birding Day' thread instead of on the Local Patch thread, perhaps we'd really see some healthy competition 3
