RIP 'Dipper' (1 Viewer)

Sad to find out today through OBC magazine that Keith Lyon aka 'Dipper', passed away in February.

See from about 3.50

A belated, safe journey, friend.

I'm not sure I ever knowingly met Dipper but that documentary certainly brings back memories! I've just re-watched a bit, it's even crazier than I remember. I'm in the Yellow-billed Cuckoo twitch - I can be seen pointing at 44.56. I don't remember the infamous car incident too well, I think I was some way removed from it. Nice to see Steve Young and the late George Reszeter in the crowd too.

We never did find out where the footage at the end of Dipper rowing around aimlessly and Dick Filby was filmed. Doesn't look like the Scillies, we always assumed north Norfolk. Anyone know?

I remember seeing this earlier in the year https://twitter.com/leeevansbirding/status/1231679117843738629?s=21
