Out buying a new bike? – The steed finally gave out – even with no saddle, brakes, handlebars and wheels she did me proud. The latest speed machine (Trog) has go faster stripes - unfortunately they still don’t make bikes with heated saddles. On the way back home we looked around the Addison Rd / May Lane area and the local estates but no luck on the Waxwing flock which had increased to eight yesterday though elusive.
Well its two days to the end of what’s been a brilliant patch year and already planning the next, won’t be doing anything different on the patch – just continue plodding away but will try to do more paintings and make more visits to Eldernell, Cambridgeshire. My wish list for 2009 is Red-necked Phalarope and American Wigeon for the pond and be pretty chuffed with either Stone Curlew or Dotterel for the valley. Mind you I wouldn’t mind a few claw backs – Surf Scoter, American Golden Plover and Collared Pratincole at the pond all have a story attached as to why they are on my friends list and not mine.
