Got back from the birdfair late last night, another successful and enjoyable weekend despite camping in the rain.
It was good to catch up with folks, especially the people I only see once a year. I made the acquaintance of
Skev for the first time and also caught up with fellow bloggers
James Lidster and
Alan Tilmouth. Quite a few readers of this nonsense called by to say hello to. Oh, and Bo the Fat Birder promised the virus thing in the Fatbirder counter doobie is now fixed.
I managed to avoid spending too much dough, bargain of the weekend was a wide-brimmed Gore-tex hat for £5, I look like idiot in it but it'll be just he job for Kenya.

Back to reality today, back to Druridge, I just got there (about 11ish) and it started to rain and it's pissed it down since.
The glum expression on this heron's face sums up my feelings - it should migrate, I wish I could!

Why does it always rain on me? |
