Description

This is no Farmoor, Otmoor or Port Meadow. This is Grimsbury. It's Grim up north!

There is a running total year list in the link above.

Please send in your bird sightings to the B.O.S. and/or to me directly for inclusion on the blog. If you have some photos you would like to contribute please let me know (contact via the comments box on the right if you do not have my email already). Thank you.

05th May 2015: Swift - number 100!

We have reached 100 bird species for the year and what a spectacular species to get us there!

John visited this evening and recorded Swifts, with around five travelling through. Swifts are a species that virtually everyone adores seeing each year as they return from Africa and is a sign that spring is in full swing and that summer is well and truly on it's way. John also recorded a female Wheatear along the western bank of the reservoir.
