Quiz of the day?


Called in at L C y D around 16. 30hrs. Had a quick glimpse of the Reed Warbler but no posing for me. A very romantic pair of Black Back Gull. About half a mile from LC y D came across this little beauty. Answers on a post card to Brian please - lol

    Thanks for taking this in good humour, it was seen in one of your regular haunts so I knew you would have the answer. If I say the bird was `PC` you will have a clue to it`s location - cannot say too much as `they are as you say "very rare"
