I work because I enjoy it, not because I need to and my approach to my leisure time activities mirrors this stance. As for the subject for another post? By whom - you or me? As for your latest passerine post, I am shocked by your revelations about both Song Thrush and Skylark in Surrey - they are like rocking horse manure on Thanet! My only local winners would have to be Cetti's Warbler, Goldfinch, House Sparrow and Raven. If we hadn't lived through the "good old days" would the current UK's bird life be enough to stimulate interest? I am confident that the answer would be positive. I've read loads of historical reports of Kentish Plovers and Stone Curlew breeding locally, I remember the Herts Bird Club harking back to the days when Cirl Buntings bred on the Chilterns around the Ashridge boundaries. We can look back, with regret, or, accept reality, and look forward with hope? Half full or half empty?

I don't know whether it shows the arrival of maturity, self-confidence or a mind free of a pack mentality - maybe the subject of another post?Steve Galehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09459545933323958452noreply@blogger.com
