"Rooks having own Conference Season" 🤣🤣 .... and I bet their Leader's speech made sense 🤣

Hi Joe. I have received your new book which I have just started reading. After reading the excellent "Bird Therapy" and meeting you at Birdfair a few years ago, I am very much looking forward this latest book from you.

Well, that's an amazing "first"! A very difficult bird to hear let alone see!

Lovely! I knew one of them would step forward to the microphone 🤣 About the time you were recording this, I was listening to a constantly singing male at Westleton Heath and managed to get a brief view. Plenty of other birds singing too including Dartford Warbler, Woodlark and Yellowhammer 😊

It is always exciting when you get a "lifer" 😊 I have seen Dotterel several times in the UK but not since 2019 so if I get to see these birds it will almost be a "lifer" re-visited!

Red-necked Phalaropes too 😊

Link to my report in my previous post. Good luck!

Hi David. If you can, get yourself down to RSPB Canvey Wick. The Nightingales will be falling over themselves to get in front of the microphone 🤣 11 singing males on Wednesday plus loads of other singing summer migrants

So if I can get Garden Warbler on a walk to Asda, I wonder what a trip to Waitrose would produce 🤣

Well done Matt! I have never cracked a hirundine shot other than those that politely pose in non-flight.
