GOT THE BIRD

We were travelling from North Yorkshire to Newbury today, via Wales. What a stupid thing to do. Go birding across the toll bridge to Wales on the day that France played Wales at rugby in Cardiff. Bad planning Twitcher!

This happy chappy was in the very long queue to the toll bridge. Well, it was before the game.

We eventually got to where the bird was, a not at all commom Common Yellowthroat and lurked about in the undergrowth for an hour and a half. Then we saw the wee birdie for six seconds. At least the motorway back to Newbury was empty.

Now about to go to the theatre to see G's granddaughter in Alice in Wonderland.
