Please do not adjust your sets, this is a real blog not a computer glitch! Yes, I've finally got around to writing an up to date post.
I apologise for not updating everyone on sightings etc. but I hope that this posting will be a start of returning to some normality (if I ever was normal!)
I'm now back on the road with an adapted vehicle which I can get my wheelchair in and I can currently drive, so I have been enjoying myself down at Dungeness volunteering again.
I have updated the list on the right for 2014 which includes a life tick for the Black Winged Stilt and the count so far is 121.
Below are a few pics I've managed to get this year, 3 bearded tit, 3 purple heron and a small copper.

4th Jan 2014

Missing out on my new year list...cant get out yet. Im now unable to drive, my legs are not strong enough to operate the pedals. I'm hoping when i finally have my assessment at the end of Jan after 6 months wait, i will be allowed to get a mobility car.
There probably wont be many updates to the blog until i can get out again, i hope to see all my friends again very soon, until then I wish you all a happy new year.
