Brummy Birder

I'm new here just thought I'd say hello and introduce myself.

I'm female, 31 years of age and I live with my partner in Birmingham. My main interest is birds and I try to get out birding as much as I can. Although we live in quite an urban area we do not have to travel to far to visit some great nature reserves such as Upton Warren in Worcestershire. I'm also a big fan of Norfolk and we visit there a few times a year.

Look forward to seeing you all on the forums

Hi Kstar and welcome to the forum - as I live in the next county from you I will be keeping updated on your 'work in progress' blog to see what is happening bird wise in the Midlands.

Re: Brummy Birder

A very warm welcome from me to.

Well I lived in good old Brum for 58 years so I think it still qualifies me as a Brummy (even though my web site is Coventry Birder.

I also do Upton Warren a few times each year and Norfolk is my second home as I am always going over there, so we have more than a few things in common.

John

Wow, thanks for the warm welcome everybody

I'm feeling rather pleased with life as we had a Wilson's Phalarope at Upton Warren today!

What's a Wilson's Phalarope? So much still about nature there is to gain and learn.

Only the second time this bird has been spotted in Worcestershire. A very exciting day for midlands birders
