The snark....


'...the impossible voyage of an improbable crew to find an inconceivable creature...' - Lewis Carroll

I really understand what these words mean. This morning I was out trying to find out the best sites to try and capture Fieldfares and Redwings. When I was out on Christmas day I had seen a large number of the birds in and around the Gaddesby area so I though a closer look would be in order. I found the birds all right but they were always just too far away. Get closer and they would fly. So the question is how much do I want to capture the birds? To try and do them justice requires significantly more application than I normally provide and ultimately will they still be '...an inconceivable creature...'? I have no answer to that question - yet.
