I hope you keep a " Garden List" ....... and mine is teetering on 97. I think . Having lived here for 40-odd years, new ones are a trifle scarce. But three days ago I heard a v. loud bird singing, and I could hear it through the double-glazing ! I opened said door ..... and crumbs, there it was, hopping around in a dense-ish hedge. Well folks, it was ..... oh yes ... a Cetti's Warbler. It is still around the garden BUT ..... will I live long enough to get to my 100th Garden Tick ? And what might the "vital extra 3" be ? I'm still thinking about those three. What about Black Tern, Waxwing ( they've been close) and Crossbill ? All I've got to do now is wait. I've not put a picture of a Cetti's up there .... as you all know the computer is rather erratic .... and this time is has erraticked it.
