It’s been a very long day – beginning at 4am, when I managed to wake myself up in advance of my 6am alarm, and failed to get back to sleep again for an hour. I needed to be out of … Continued

I went over to Brandon Marsh today, in search of a couple of whooper swans that have been reported there over the past few days. I found them quite easily, but they were zonked on the edge of an island, … Continued
