To describe my lifelong fascination with flight and with creatures that fly I like to echo the words of John James Audubon who in 1839 wrote of himself as "...one who never can cease to admire and to study with zeal and the most heartfelt reverence, the wonderful productions of an Almighty Creator."

A few birds seen today in Sofia, Bulgaria
This week I'm in Sofia, Bulgaria. The birding is pretty good in the large park near our apartment, but the new leaves on the trees make it challenging to spot the birds that can be heard singing all around and above us. However, I have managed to photograph a couple of them, including a Nightingale (a species I'd never seen before) and a Great Tit carrying food to the young in its nest in the base of a lamp post. Looking forward to some expeditions outside the city in the coming days.
