Thank you very much Steph, I really appreciate your kind words.

Thank you very much Steph. I was really lucky with the Swainson's especially showing so well, and being the perfect subject!

Thank you so much Harry, I really appreciate the kind words.

Thank you very much Harry, I have had this sketch for a few weeks now, and a painting idea that I just need a little more time to get around to!

Probably a bit of both. Historically, most birders that did do the north-west would do it in September, and would then go south-west in October. Donegal in horribly underwatched, even by Irish standards!

There goes my hope for 3 in row. 😥

Thank you very much Ed, have you been tempted up for it yet?

Thank you very much Steph, very kind of you!

Thanks Ed, glad you enjoyed it, was great to have a little part of it.

That is really beautiful Holly, hoping that this winter is a good one for Waxwings.

Thanks a million Allan.

Thank you very much Steph.
