Last week of the year 2020.

Will do my daily birding for a short period every day in the last week of the year 2020. Christmas this year in the pandemic has restricted movement, so am content birding from home. #ATHOME is the new norm for humanity at the present time. So appreciate my bird snaps at ATHOME.

It's Christmas WISHING ALL A MERRY CHRISTMAS!

I've been to the Duck-pond on the 23 Dec 20. My companion, a teacher by profession now inclined towards birding, is a great enthusiast when shooting birds in flight was with me on this trip. Our coverage of our winter visitors this time around has been great. The day and light were perfect. Appreciate the snaps for our winter Christmas visitors.

"MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL MY VIEWERS"
