Sand Martin success

Popped down to Old Hive again to check on the Sand Martin colony. Conditions were right for feeding over the adjacent arable fields. A conservative estimate would be 300 birds...

MEGA excitement for a few yesterday with a GIANT PETREL sp seen in the NE! Amazing record of an Antarctic species.

Busy preserving my records on-line at the moment (BUBO and eBird) during this (generally) quiet spell. Much fun being had as many wonderful memories are re-kindled. My old faithful is still performing well BUT no guarantees it will last! I persevere with this antiquated Bird Recorder programme (bought on floppy discs in 1987) as it's a joy to use.
