Well another Pipit...and another bloody dip. This time a Pechora Pipit near Goodwick, present for god knows how long, showing well...comes Saturday, its pissed off...yay!!
I went with Anthony, a great bloke, all that was missing was the bird. Together we waited from first light to dusk just to make sure no bugger claimed it! A Siberian Chiff-chaff being a small consellation but something to look at all the same. Firecrest ummm.... Water Rail..... thats about it.

About Me
- Ashley Howe
- Welcome to my newly revamped blog - I am currently studying Wildlife & Media at the University of Cumbria where I currently spend a large proportion of the year. In between terms, however, I go back home and do as much birding in Hampshire as possible. It ain't no Norfolk but I love it just the same. My interest for birds started in 2002, and continued to grow, thanks to the Fuller's, who took me under their wing(s). From 2005 I unfortunately got more involved in twitching. And so now find myself travelling vast distances, and spending money that I can't really afford to spend to feed my obsession - in seeing birds that I haven't already seen in Britain and Ireland. Surprisingly I don't keep a lifelist as my total doesn't really interest me. Since springing onto the birding scene I have met many great people who have taught me an invaluable amount in this hobby, and to whom I am very grateful for!
