I've forgotten the pleasure I used to get from photography. I was explaining to someone that I used to develop my own black and white photos 30 years ago. It's a lot easier these days with digital images and photoshop.
If you go to Kew gardens the parakeets can be seen in flocks and they drown out the sound of all the other birds. Another bird moving north is the little egret and I saw a couple of them when I was on the Norfolk coast. xx
