I was really pleased to meet 3 birders at New Passage this morning whose websites and twitter feeds I have been following regularly and which have been quite inspirational to me:

Paul Bannerman @severnsidebirds http://www.severnsidebirds.co.uk/ 

Martyn Hayes @southglosbirds , http://www.thebirdsofsouthgloucestershire.co.uk/

Lisegirl @Lisegirl1

They were all so friendly, helpful and encouraging.

Wheatear, Meadow Pipit, Pied Wagtail, Redshank, Curlew Sandpiper, Little Egret, Grey Heron, Yellow Wagtail (no good photo) the best for me.

Apologies for so many photos of the same Northern Wheatear – just enjoying playing with new lens.
