An unlikely pair of swans on the Low Lake. #Wintersett this morning. The Whooper Swan has been present all winter & though it can fly it may not be fully fit for a trip back to Iceland, we’ll see.

200 years of data from the place where conservation of birds & wildlife was born, including the worlds first nature reserve.

340 pages hardback, full colour detailing the history of the birds & the habitat & social history of the area

Here’s my first bins when I started birding around 1976. They were bought by my dad around 1967, Ross 9x35 & pretty decent quality. Read how we got on in the 70s in #Birdsofwintersett

Young uns never had it so good. Read how we birded in the 70s & 80s, be amazed how long it took to see that photo you just took like this 1990 Leachs Petrel!
