PSA: don’t do this! This guy is taking multiple calls on speakerphone. And because the (nice) music in here is loudish, he has the volume turned up. So basically he’s shouting at his table, and his table is shouting back.

After 8h birding at the RSPB this morning, I skipped the nap and spent the afternoon helping with lambing instead. What a great day!

So many birds seen and/or heard this morning; the highlights were: avocet, snipe, whitethroat, and nightingale, but also many of my favourites including: treecreeper, blackcap, teal, sedge warbler, lapwing, song thrush, and green woodpecker. A brilliant start to my day! #UKBirding
