Today I officially became the parent of a teenager. A good (birding) friend of mine once questioned my decision to have a child in October! This was something that crossed my mind when this weekend I simply couldn't consider either the Rubythroat or the Tanager. I wouldn't swap Beth for the world - she's a wonderful daughter so much so that even if I'd gone for either the aforementioned birds she'd have understood completely well deep down she's a birder at heart!
Is that not the green Peugeot in the top photo that you kindly sold to me? Now unfortunately dead and recycled as tin cans due to an unfortunate sump-related incident near Fleck a couple of years ago.
ReplyDeleteThe Rubythroat will have died by next weekend. There's nothing to see here any more. Move along please...
More importantly, happy birthday Beth!
