I really like the idea of photographing and documenting every bird in the UK as a personal project; the sort of idea I wish I had come up with. I think you do it with great proficiency and skill as well - I really like how you categorise photos in terms of quality, how you've got a check list of birds from each family, how you colour code... all your categorisation techniques are carried out with enviable ease. Your photos are also pretty good, and Bill is right when he says your pic of the Lesser Spotted Woodpecker is great.<br /><br />Sorry to seem as if I'm pestering you at all, but I thought I'd alert you of my blog. I would very much appreciate it if you could 'follow', as they call it, the blog, and any comments about it in the blog itself would be much appreciated as well! The link is below:<br /><br />http://josephnicholsbirding.blogspot.com/<br /><br />I am now following your blog, and I have also added it to my blog list so I can keep an eye out for any new posts. A very impressive project, well done!<br /><br />All the Best,<br /><br />Joseph NicholsJoseph Nicholshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01105829078247550891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4033822354313824178.post-87829065526176200282010-12-11T23:30:07.687+00:002010-12-11T23:30:07.687+00:00Yeah, definitely nice one.

I have to admit I just got very lucky, I wasn't even looking particularly, was on my way home from a largely unsuccessful trip and heard some tapping up a tree, I was expecting a nuthatch which I'm still trying to get a really nice photo of was and was very pleased and surprised to find this little fellow there.<br /><br />Taking photos in a slightly frantic rush incase it flew off before I got a decent one ensued but it stuck around for ages entirely ignoring me. <br /><br />Thanks again!Alex Holthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08467191183478540917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4033822354313824178.post-65242248035528866022010-12-06T19:47:37.197+00:002010-12-06T19:47:37.197+00:00A great photo considering the sheer difficulty mos...A great photo considering the sheer difficulty most people have actually finding these rare and elusive little birds. I'm still waiting to see one, having heard one a few years back.<br /><br />Nice blog, and a nice idea.Billy Dykeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00840933193238325733noreply@blogger.com
