I fanatical birder,and recently qualified ringer, with a love of finding my own birds and watching my local patch at Snettisham. My self found list currently stands at 259, with standout highlghts being the recent Collared Flycatcher at Holme and the 2009 Oriental Pratincole at Dungeness. I also enjoy spending time working on my own drawings, done with a combination of water colour paints, taken from my own digiscoped pictures, and have developed a real interest in moths, as well as Dragonflies and plants, thanks to the three seasons I spent working at Dungeness Bird Observatory (2008 - 2010)
