He's pining for the Fjords !
G8INA's Telford, UK List 2006 + photos. Closed at only 90
Being a relative newbie to birding, I may make a few mistakes, so if anyone spots a glaring error, please LMK. Gear consists of my own eyes and ears, plus a Nikon D70, Tamron 28-300 F6.3, and a Revelation telescope as a manual lens at 500mm F6.2. Some pics at harrisphotography.co.uk and more to be added as they get snapped. Located Telford, about 40Km west of Birmingham UK. I should add that most of these will be back garden obs as being a wheelchair user, getting out and about is a bit tricky, but some obs will be Telford Town Park.
Edit 8 May 06 - added some photo links to harrisphotography, marked with *
Edit 12 June, restyled list and made some error corrections.
