Christine's walking & birds blog

The report of a spoonbill at Dorney Wetlands sent me rushing down there - but the bird had flown. Well, birds do. That's why they've got wings. Getting an earful of someone else's grumpiness just renewed my determination not to twitch any more.


By comparison, late afternoon yesterday at Dorney Lake was idyllic. The only bird of note was a gorgeous bar-tailed godwit; but it was an unexpected find - and there were no moaning men!
