This whole " Worst of" thread wot I've been doing has boosted my readership by a huge and remarkable 400% .. from 1 to, er, 4. So I'm Bumping on the Jandwagon whilst my luck lasts ...... and this time I am focusing my attention ( or what's left of it) on "Nature" columns in the papers. So ...here's what I think is the worst one ... and I've spent the whole week scrabbling in all the dustbins in the road to find them ... these first two tell us some incredibly astute revelations about Black Redstarts and their "ecclesiastical" nesting habits, and also about moles and their powerful front feet.... gripping stuff ! .... more incredible insights into the secret life of plants .... and we also learn that the Black-Tailed Godwit is " one of our most remarkable birds, so peculiar in fact that sometimes great chunks of them can't be seen. " Well well ! I wonder if the Hobbys mentioned below are really " much more frequently noticed by "people" these days" ...... who are these " people" and could they tell a hawk from a handsaw ? And we are reminded that fish are often in lakes, or rather, "a" lake. Blackcaps, apparently, are " drifting about", the lazy sods. I'll leave you to pick the bones out of these last two .. I don't seem to have the energy after all that cutting-out ... I think that's a worthy winner ...... but if you know of a duffer one, please let me know at [email protected] or as a comment. It is a drizzly night ..... there's a bit of a crescent moon ... and only 1 measly star is visible ... so here's " Sbia ar y seren" .... "look at the star" ... if you want to see my previous " worst things" , here's the link .... 659-the-worst-foreign-bird-guide.html
