Old Glamorgan Birds

The RFF pictures were mine. Found the perched one but could not do any better with it than Joek. Could not locate the flight shot.

2 Slides I have found show Grey Phalarope on Lisvane res. after the big blow in the early 80's and the party of Whoopers which regularly wintered at Kenfig in the 70's.

Not too good but they were not great slides in the first place.

Scotland early 1970s

These photographs were taken by Maurice Chown in the early 1970s somewhere in Scotland, while on a birding trip with Steve Howcroft. Scans from slides provided by SRH.

Red-footed Falcon KNNR early 1970s

Details missing. Heavily cropped images from scans, slides provided by SRH. May the photographer step forward. Please leave a comment if you know when, who, etc.

Autumn ( in anticipation)

Apparently it has been a bumper year for Pallas's Sandgrouse in Kasakhstan. Maybe one in the UK this year ?
