a day of almosts






with eastern vagrants apparently dripping from all east coast trees and bushes we managed to find today well not a lot but the tail pumping skulking Tree Pipit could have been an Olive-backed, we could have found the Cattle Egret but were 200m away at the time and who looks through gulls following a tractor when there are eastern vagrants to locate? and then of course this juvenile Turtle Dove really should have been more exotic but it had the bad manners to let us have a good look at it and even pose for its photo -- so better luck tomorrow!,
