The seldom seen birder




Elbow at O2 Academy, Newcastle 05 March 2009.


Appropriately opened their set with.... "starlings".


I'll be back out birding on 7th...

Birding... sometimes?

Another birdingless week is coming to an end. Highlights? None really. Grey Wag on the Horton Burn yesterday on my way to the papershop. Norfolk plans were abandoned as the sibe thrush cleared off. Maybe it will be a great grey shrike hunt on Saturday?

Distinct Spring feeling to the air this morning, greenfinch are becoming vocal and the starlings have began taking nest material into the neighbours guttering.

Last night found me watching Elbow at the O2 Academy in Newcastle. Wow, what a stunning band, enhanced by some very good banter from frontman Guy Garvey - clearly enjoying the bands success. A dodgy mobile phone pic will surely end up here soon.
