[QUOTE="halftwo, post: 1685894, member: 45720"] [b]Thirteenth Full Moon, Last Bird of the Decade[/b] Have just returned from trying to make Barn owl my last bird of the decade. As the last day of the decade became night the thirteenth full moon of the year rose to shine through the cheesecloth sky. A Tawny owl hooted close by. Barn owls failed me. So the last positively identifiable bird by (by sight) ? Woodcock. No fewer than four Woodcock came out to fly over towards night-time feeding in nearby fields. Birds continued to call: Pheasants and Mallards mainly, but almost last was the rather ghoulish cry of Lapwings. So that was the noughties. [/QUOTE]
