Yes I’m a year older and with some of the battles I’ve faced over the years each birthday is something to celebrate believe me.
So after answering a few text messages, opening a few presents (mostly bird related with a sprinkling of Springsteen) seeing my parents, eating cake and enjoying a garden tick when a Stock Dove dropped in for the first time I headed off in search of some birthday bird action.
Burwell Fen was my destination and the expected Short-eared Owl show didn’t let me down with at least three birds showing well from about 2.30pm until dusk.

Essex Birder using the blog as a diary of my trips around the country chasing birds. Enjoying the places it takes me and the people I meet along the way. Great to spend time with my Dad and brother as we chase our year lists and grow our life list in the process.
