Sometimes when I’m birdwatching

Tags: sorry, sometimes when I’m birdwatching, things that aren’t birds, my photos, but for the record, crowley lek, can't link to the checklist, it's sooper seekrit, but it may have included a certain bird, that shall rename nameless, but its bander code starts with G, and ends with RSG, i did not proceed past the sign, and you can't prove I put the list on ebird, but thanks to the impressive feature set there, i can still satisfy my compulsive side, in a low-key way.

Tags: birds, well, sometimes, most of the time, and there they are, wata, my photos, wandering tattler, i go out to try to see a particular bird, usually to work on my county year list, and I fail, but once in a while, i'm not even technically chasing, i just know a species should be around, and i think to myself, i bet there could be one or two of them *there*, and i go there, that was this bird this morning, this puts me at 221 for the year, i'm 3 ahead of mark, but for the record, this whole gamification of birdwatching, is deeply silly.
