This was supposed to have been a desk-bound day, as I continue the struggle to get back on top of all the stuff I allowed to slide over Christmas. But I’m never very good at doing what I ought to … Continued

I haven’t posted one of these images of a Mute Swan washing its armpits for quite a while now – largely because I tend to assume that it’s the kind of thing everyone sees all the time. But the other … Continued

Water on a duck’s back

by JDO | posted in: Birds, Warwickshire | 0

I spent this morning expunging the most festering items from my to-do list.  Sadly the only satisfaction this gave me was that I can now see the surface of my desk again: there’s still a huge heap of paperwork there … Continued

I’d intended to get out early this morning and take some macro shots of the fabulous hoar frost. But I didn’t check the forecast carefully enough yesterday, and missed the bit where it said that the temperature was going to … Continued

As I drove home from the owl field last night it became increasingly misty. It even looked as though an inversion might be forming over Chipping Campden, and I made a mental note that it would be worth going up … Continued

My plan to go owling today fell by the wayside early this afternoon, because reasons, and in the end I went off into Stratford with R instead, for churchyard birding, coffee, and shopping. Holy Trinity churchyard was quiet: though both … Continued

R and I went into Stratford for lunch today, and I took the opportunity to spend twenty minutes in Holy Trinity churchyard with the resident birds. For the first quarter of an hour I only managed to photograph Robins, because … Continued

Draycote birding

Well, this wasn’t on my New Year bird list bingo card. I hadn’t expected to be going out at all today, after waking to the tail end of yesterday’s storm, but by lunchtime the gale had blown through and the … Continued
