Day 7! A whole week’s worth of daily posts. Getting easier to remember to do it but I suspect it will get harder to think what to write about; guess that’s the challenge really. It’s all for me really, all about me actually writing things down so I can discipline myself to write regularly, and you get to read it if you want. Today’s species is one I saw today on my birding ‘patch’ – basically a local area you visit often an gradually you see changes, learn what’s regularly there and when, and what’s a rarity. I find it more rewarding than going further afield to be honest, you get to know your local area.
