A celebration of birding and natural history, generally within a 10 mile radius of Ely Cathedral, Cambridgeshire, UK.
It would be great if you wanted to share your Ely 10 birding news, experiences, photos, art and video through this blog. Please contact hairyfolkster@gmail.com with your post or to join the authorship, I'll get you on the list quicker than a fly over Alpine Swift.

Phalarope
I didn't manage to get back to Welney, but I worked up a watercolour of the Phalarope from sketches done on Saturday. This last few days have thrown up some very big birds all over the country, but sometimes the littlest can be worth a look too.
