    Sad news indeed, always chatty, always funny, always smiling, RIP Tony

    a hiccup, like the tree that got the Timebandits in trouble in the film of that title, the pink Bungado or something similar sounding if my memory serves me well(ish)

    Jack Russell x with something else small?

    This afternoon with a borrowed camera as I forgot mine. Pretty birds, sadly the dog scared them off before I could get too near.

    Saw a Sardinian Warbler, Crossbill, Redstart, White Wagtail, Stonechat, Chiffchaff and Hoopoe yesterday, sadly all out of range of my little camera, but I'm still hopeful of getting some of them soon.

    Garland Green's "Come Through Me" would be there or thereabouts for me.

    Neither have been on the 100 club anniversary singles yet.

    Hi all, just a little reminder to anyone wanting to be a sponsor of the NSHOF, we can't get the trophies out without having some funding behind us. TattooDave

    All the first inductees aren't up yet, there's a couple more being added at a time so that the weight of reading doesn't bog down those that want to read and inwardly digest, or even comment. So, be patient, they'll be there soon. TattooDave

    Cheapest place to buy certain items and you don't need to look embarrassed by going into a chandlers

    You shouldn't do Chris, once the record has the duty paid they hand it over and their job is done.

    I know, I get it from his brother all the time

    Well done Eddie, a great read.

    Hence I started with "My theory", just postulating, and smiling at those two words which conjure up a piece of Monty Python lunacy. What do I know? I ain't got fevvers!
  15. Tattoodave
    Other than that I haven't got a clue!

    My theory is that they are just warming up prior to roosting, metal structures are bloody cold and my basic physics tell me that metal conducts heat pretty well, so by getting warm prior to roosting they are probably not going to feel the cold that quickly, and it's a very good defensive strategy to fly like that, it confuses the hell out of me let alone a predator.

    I've seen murmurations over Eastbourne and Brighton, amazing sight, they settle eventually on the piers, or at least did before Eastbourne went up in flames. And before anyone from Southend asks I have a cast iron alibi (no pun intended) I was in Spain when it went up, honest!

    But it's better than The Puffs

    I'm a big Bobby Swayne fan, the Superbs were an amazing outfit. Check out Bee Gee Kay's version of I Only Cry Once A Day, there's four versions on Dore as far as I can remember, Lynn Loring, Tracey Williams and The Puffs being the others, the only two worth listening to are The Puffs, and the much superior Bee Gee Kay. Bought my copy of GWTW in 1981 on a quick business trip to Los Angeles from Japan for $10, along with other Dore bits.

    There's one on ebay, £13.99 buy it now, and several more expensive on Amazon

    This was taken a couple of weeks ago when my little Kapitan was still alive and running along the beach with me, today would have been his 2nd birthday. This is the limit of the autumn colour in Southern Spain at the moment, not brilliant, taken in central Marbella. This morning, just before dawn.

    Smart move Mark, wish I'd thought of it, though I'd smile inanely too, I can do that well.

    All you have to do is rally the support for Ian's inclusion in the next round of votes and put in the votes, after all, as Vic Reeves used to say " We really want to see those fingers".

    They are a real beauty of the scarcer British birds, LBJ's might be difficult to pin down and downright confusing at times, but the nuthatch is a stunner. Watched a treecreeper going down a tree as a nuthatch was going up the same tree once, pure magic.

    I had one sit on the fork as I was digging, but never fed a robin from my hand. Had a chaffinch come in the car at Portmadog, for his lunch, sat on the steering wheel, very odd.
