So many questions. Mind, if you don't ...Lesley,<br />So many questions. Mind, if you don't ask you don't learn anything.<br />Preswick Carr IS close to the airport. I pass strange people on the way there. These "wierdos" are standing around watching things flying in the air through binoculars. The Carr is not far from NEWCASTLE airport and these guys are watching PLANES. Very strange. Bicycle Bill is a gentleman who frequents the area and all the birders who go there bump into him.<br />It was a lovely day, the light was great, making any sightings of wildlife more stunning than usual. Goldfinches are cracking birds and you can see some large flocks at thius time of year. I saw a flock of around 300 a couple of weeks ago in nice evening light and it was fantastic.<br />I hope the moving goes well. Always a very stressfull time.<br /><br />John,<br />There is no way i could reach the standard of the Frankie Howardesque Liverbirder. He is in a league of his own.<br />Did you and the missus get any rutting in on Sunday, (if you know what i mean) nudge, nudge, wink,wink.<br />JohnJohnnykinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12076909025101532481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7311340934881749489.post-75624950041778317512010-10-26T11:59:48.028+01:002010-10-26T11:59:48.028+01:00John,

Where's Prestwick Carr John? ...Budgies! :O) <br /><br />Where's Prestwick Carr John? I only know of one Prestwick - in Scotland and there's an airport there. We used to take the boys there when they were toddlers, to watch the aircraft take off. Not too unlike birdwatching.... still 'birds of the air'. :) I don't think the Carr can be near there though, as you reached it within 20 minutes of Killingworth. :D<br /><br />It was a lovely day yesterday, wasn't it. The sun was shining so I took our Bob up the pit bank and through the woods... saw some goldfinches feeding on Rosebay Willowherb seeds. It was lovely.<br /><br />Who's Bicycle Bill?!!!! :O)<br /><br />(p.s. In the throes of packing boxes but I will be doing a final post for our garden here before we leave)Lesleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05908084484202064053noreply@blogger.com
