Default Any Birding/Wildlife pressies for Christmas anyone?

I received a delightful seed feeder for my garden with my favourite bird perched on it! I just hope the Robins that visit my garden do not attack it.lol!

I also received a splendid book 'Algarve Wildlife-the natural year'! It gives superb information on a 'two week' basis of what it is possible/likely to be seen in the Algarve and the photography is excellent!

I've personalised the strap with two silver skulls stitched through both straps to stop the lower portions from flapping around and my spudz cleaning cloth.

I've been down that road. Keep saving till you can get the one you really want.
