Trystan's tentative 2021 world list (1 Viewer)

[Trystan]

A really enjoyable read. Yorkshire has clearly been the place to be this year

Thanks, it definitely has

 

[Trystan]

Much delayed in trying to catch up with my list after being on holiday, then being extremely busy, followed by spending lots of time on weekends sliding down a riverbank in Preston not seeing anything.

Joined a trip to Kenya arranged between a group of other Birdforum members and managed good haul of species and salvaged another difficult year of restrictions.

31/10/21

First chance to go for this at it's newly found and more settled location. Showed really well this morning perched in the open for scope filling views.
