Surely, as long as you are keeping your distance, there's no problem with stopping to look at birds!?! <br /><br />Today, I saw a Black-necked Stilt at a nearby lake. Looking on the Audubon App, it says it is an uncommon migrant in this area. I think it is more akin to your marshes than our alpine lakes! Stay well, my friend!Angiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08490533253436208034noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4526180646938954660.post-89980612170024860312020-04-28T16:09:44.537+01:002020-04-28T16:09:44.537+01:00Good on you for getting out to stop and stare a bi...Good on you for getting out to stop and stare a bit!<br /><br />You found some nice birds at which to stare, too. Any day which includes a Buzzard and a Sparrowhawk is a good day. The Sedge Warbler may be plain looking but is really handsome. I found its song online and the burbling clear notes were really cheerful.<br /><br />I'm going to have to locate a Whimbrel and count its calls. (Gini does the actual counting as I am mathematically challenged.)<br /><br />All is good here. So far, our forays into some remote locales have been without incident. However, as you point out, we know the torch and pitchfork crowd is looking for us ---<br /><br />Have a great day!

We have an air polution problem in our village from lorries and aircraft and since the lockdown and the reduced polution the place is comming to life again so the future looks good. In the meantime I have my night animals which tend to keep me up half the night. Stay safe.

I am ...Nice to be back on your blog my friend Phil! I am so amazed with the beauty of the fishing port you shared to us and I really hope it can revive the fishing industry on your town. These birds are amazing as usual especially seeing that buzzard and sparrowhawk in flight! But of course, my favorite is the bird that your blog has introduced me to, that cute lapwing! I now notice the spectrum of rainbow colors on its wingside. Beautiful!<br /><br />Please stay safe my friend and sending you wishes of an awesome new week ahead of us! Glad to hear you will have rain soon, would really love that here as well :)<br /><br />StevensonStevenson Qhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12137070659644887162noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4526180646938954660.post-9319783181835540532020-04-27T19:42:34.125+01:002020-04-27T19:42:34.125+01:00Wow, you did well and all so close to home.

I heard one of the Owls at the weekend but no sightings at all. Keep well, DianeRhodesiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00159888599601532530noreply@blogger.com
