Here beginneth the lesson (Everyone now say Amen);
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twenty-seven (you know the song).
When you go birding, by the very nature of what you do, birds get flushed. That's how you get to do things like identify them (applicable to some) and count them (applicable to others). No amount of fieldcraft (even for the likes of the 'The Count') will ever change that.
There endeth the lesson (Amen, until next time).
On a lighter note, please remember that Tuesday night is a black tie event (or a tight short event - what ever takes your fancy). Everyone attending will be awarded a prize. Please ensure you have a speech ready. Remember, some of the very toppest prizes in birdwatching are up for grabs. Best Use of Fieldcraft whilst dogging at Lavernock Point is an award new for 2011 and should be hottly contended, as is the award for Cardiff Birder Most Likely to get all his own shots into the County Bird Report/ Best Benny from Abba looky-likey 2011 (this could be a tough one). Best email of the Year of course goes to Sugar Ray.
Please also remember that should the mantra 'MED GULLLLLLLLLLL' be called at any point during the evening, all participants are kindly reminded that they must participate and 'strike the pose'. A short demonstration of 'the pose' will be enacted before the event by the hostest with the mostest 'Slapmeister'.

I,ve just realised a tranny is not a van.
Fcukin hell a post without an owl photo, well done that man
Yeah, but did you get the irony in the song (one, two, three....twenty-seven)?. I fcukin love the Count. Ever sense a new nickname being born?
On an even more spurious note, are you coming to the curry Misty? We'd love to see you there. I'm sure one of us has a shed or kennel you can stay in (Badger I know a local sett that does B&B if you're available).
PS Misty, you've won an award for best 'Accipter mis-idenfication'....usually we send this award straight to the GLB every year....this year you've only gone an done it sunshine!!!!
Gee thanks for the price Randy, unfortunately I have a date on the night in question so I won,t be there to pick it up in person.
You can pass it on to you know who along with the Observer book of birds.
