[QUOTE="lindisfel, post: 2399966, member: 57698"] Hi all, I spent this morning with other old birders with telescope and binoculars sat out on chairs, in the RSPB car park at Bowness on Solway, where the Roman wall ended, looking for sea birds coming into the Solway from the Irish Sea on the incoming tide. They were all youngsters compared to me, mostly in their 70's. Two had lost their wives, one more than 20 years ago. I think how fortunate I am to have the duchess, keeping this creaking gate hanging on its hinges.:) I thought one day in the not too distant future there will be another border in the middle of the mile and half of water at high tide between us and Annan. A great pity, but threats not to cooperate wont help the Union. The sea birds will not notice. Not the Great, Arctic, Pomarine and Long-tailed Skuas that migrate through at this time of year and on their way to the Arctic. Just two species of Skua came through this am plus Kittiwakes and Red throated Divers. It was a pleasant interlude amongst calm and knowledgeable guys. It was nice not to be in masks although we all kept our distance. With fresh air a plenty. Some bikers were tickled by the signpost that said how far it was to Rome! However I think the soldiers that manned the wall came from Gaul. D. [/QUOTE]
