Messingham Sand Quarry - The Birding Wilderness

Just need to get the birds seen during the Test Matches in the report now and it will be job done ! Your Brambling sightings were amazing and deserve recognition.

Hey up Alan,

Just read the current e-newsletter (first time I've read one) and your prayers have been answered at last, your sightings have been mentioned both at MSQ and BB, maybe elsewhere as well. The powers that be have at last come to senses and included you, well done!

I'm now wondering if I ever got a mention for the Bramblings that stayed 70 days in my garden either last year or year before, some sort of record I would have thought.

Cheers Max

Good lad! Where would I be without sightings of MSQ up the swanee to be polite
Tweeting is dead easy but I only sent a few cos I was limited to how many words I used, whereas on here I can write a manuscript as long as I don't get timed out.

Your sightings may not go anywhere mate but on here they will be read by those who are interested.

Regards
Max

Hi Max
Having thought about it I am going to continue with my sightings. Although I am on Twitter for Rare Bird Alert I have no idea how to do any of this tweeting or retweeting so I will not be doing that and presume my sightings will never go anywhere

Read with interest the ongoing saga.

I think you either have the wrong colour hair or you don't belong the right gang Alan to get your excellent sightings from my fave reserve mentioned in the monthly e-newsletter. Personally I've never read any of them and never will. I remember and I've mentioned this many times, in 2008 my mate and I had 100 corn bunting at Thoresway which I duly put on the forum . Then about a year later was questioned by one of the admin team (no longer on it I believe) for weeks and I produced evidence (but not pics) and finally nowt more was said. I fully expected it appearing in the annual report years later, but no mention! And I haven't forgotten and never will.

I joined Twitter and Facebook almost 5 years ago, I used the former most weeks then after a year or so got fed up of it, am still a member but never go on. Go on FB most weeks but very rarely look at owt to do with wildlife.

I much prefer coming on the FORUM and catching up with all the different sightings and hoping someone has put some new pics on which is extremely rare.

I hope you reconsider Alan as not many report from MSQ year round, quite a few do during the sunnier times. I don't come on the forum as often as I did due to illness but really enjoy when I do.

I know CG does work hard and very few of us would do what he does, I certainly wouldn't, did my paperwork when surveying etc.

Well that's got that off me chest and hope I haven't been timed out.

Regards

Max
