WWF

Every year I must post at least a few photos of Chinese Water Deer at Woodwalton Fen. So, in order to fulfill this contractual obligation, here are three.

It was a dull but still morning at WWF NNR on Sunday (18.10.09) – perfect for listening for stuff. And stuff duly performed, notably at least four Water Rails and at least one Bearded Tit (a female towered above the reeds and narrowly avoided being a Sparowhawk snackette); and at least three Bramblings.
The BT and the B took my PBC year list up to 187, just two short of last year's record. Will 2009 still be the year?
