.. A fantastic start to the year - The trip to South Africa was a great success - Final bird total 417 species. The obvious shock is the drop of 25c in temperature and permanent greyness coupled with wet, windy and damp stuff - will take a few days to adjust back ! - I've updated the South Africa page (on the right) for the trip.
Not been out yet in the UK so additions to my overall year list as I write this is 22 from the garden , but I did see a Peregrine drift over the house which is a first. With no cold snap the birds seem to have dispersed as there a very small numbers around the feeders and much fewer in general than before xmas - I imagine the Big Garden Birdwatch this weekend may have very low totals as the wet weather looks to continue.
