British Birdwatching Fair Rutland Water
August 2006, British Birdwatching Fair, Rutland Water
As usual, we were working on the Tropical Birding stand and as is always the case, conversation turned to ‘what if’? What birds would we really like to see and where could we go to see them? As always, the answer was everything, and everywhere, but strangely, no mention of birding in Britain. Iain Campbell and Christian Boix of Tropical Birding are people who do rather than talk about birding and after only a few days in their company, we found ourselves seriously considering taking a year out to go birding. And we couldn’t find a good reason not to do it!
