Birder, based in Northants, but from South Yorks.
Dragonflies, butterflies, football , cricket and music
Haven’t seen a Mistle Thrush since August!!! Have they just vanished completely?
I’ve been in suitable habitat in Northants and Bedfordshire and not a sniff.

Best yoga fart EVER tonight, by my yoga matt neighbour!
Brought huge laughter from all of us (even though we’re 50+ year old men).

Humes warbler showing well and calling at Marston vale, Bedfordshire. County first and only my 2nd.
Also fitted in an 11k run (which was much much harder than seeing the bird.

Bought in a moment of nerdery.

Got to love the fightback.

RIP Mani. You absolute ledge. Lucky to see him with Primal Scream 4 times.

Fairly confident Spotify has been ear wigging my conversation with my mates about the #Ashes just had ‘two tribes’ followed by ‘we are fucking fucked’ by Muse on the van stereo!!
Just waiting for ‘I don’t like cricket’ to come on next.

Arggh probable Merlin razzing across the M1 in the orange glow of dawn (0715).
Would have been a belter of a M1✔️, but the light could have been playing tricks on me #theonethatgotaway #northantsbirds #ukbirding

Has Infantino been smoking crack?

The singing of ‘flower of Scotland’ was the high point of the first 9 minutes of the game for Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿.
Rest of it has been pish.

Summer Leys this lunchtime.
Pintail, 12+ Pochard and a Green Sand.
Got a little bit excited with a big pale looking Meadow pipit, but it was just a Mipit.

The lottery winners from last night in Oxford.
10th time we’ve seen them, and now they’re doing stadiums.
Like watching your kids grow up.

First time in over a year I’ve been pant wettingly soaked at work.
Thankful for the blessed rain, but I’m definitely getting too old for working in the rain.

England fans, up your origami skills ffs.
You’ve got the opportunity to make a fully animatronic Pterodactyl during the 2nd half.
