I began this blog on October 1st 2013 when I was 6 months away from my 50th Birthday and wanted to daily record my year with the blog ending on September 30th 2014. Five years later as I approached 55 I repeated this. Now ten years after this all began as I prepare to reach my 60th birthday in 2024 once more a daily update beginning on October 1st 2023 and ending on 30th September 2024. It is a personal journey, which others may find mind-numbing!

October 9th 2013
One of the joys, and there are many, of working for the World's leading wildlife media department, the BBC's Natural History Unit is that we are sent interesting things to read. These BTO Annual Reviews for 2013 are hot off the press (or should that be hot off the nest) and so I've just put the kettle on and will spend half an hour reading through to see what's happened in the last 12 months. Best of all is the picture of snipe on the cover. Fantastic little waders; a couple of winters back I saw over 100 at the RSPB's Graylake reserve feeding over a newly created scrape, a memorable sight.
