This year I decided to set myself the challenge of seeing 200 of our British Birds. Twitching rarities wasn't the aim of the game but more getting to some of the best bits of the British Isles to track down the species that live there. From the Ptarmigan high up on Cairngorm Slopes to Puffins on the Isle of Skomer I have had a lot of fun so far! Not reached the magic number yet though so a little bit of luck may be required!

As always I have been attempting to photograph many of the species I have seen aiming to stitch the diary into a new and hopefully entertaining talk.
One of the best birds for sure so far, this golden eagle displaying on the Outer Hebrides.
