You moving north Alastair? I had a great time up there when I visited, and the county recorder Eric Meek ( if he still is) is from Northumberland too!

Hi Alastair
I too have enjoyed reading your Whitby blog and keeping up to date with and area I know well.

The Yahoo vis Group will be doing some coordinated UK vis watches this autumn and you may be interested in having a go from your new patch in Orkney when you have got settled in? I will mail you direct re this in the next few days. Would be a very good comparison!

Best wishes and Good Luck!
Dave

Good luck in the far north Alastair.

Will miss Whitby Birding, it's been an excellent mixture of entertainment & information, but I'll keep tabs on the new blog to see how you're getting on.
