Be prepared!

Should be our motto. I had a sparrowhawk swoop down and settle on my front garden wall last night. I was on the phone and just happened to be looking out of the window when it happened....now descision time, do i hang up on my mum or roam around my house to find the camera whilst trying to sound interested at the same time, as luck would have it (or not ) it shot off before i could do either.

Well i'm hoping that it will visit again as the wrath of one's mother is a thing not to be trifled with.

So be prepared for nature sightings anytime, anyhow and any place. If you do see anything, flying, scurrying, crawling, hopping, hovering etc then somebody needs to know. These chaps especially.....www.nesbrec.org.uk the North East Scotland Biological Recording Centre. Check out their website on how to input sightings yourself on-line, paper or via the phone. Whether its casual sightings as you're on the way to work or an indepth survey for a school or college project, let others share your finds and help us put together a picture of what wildlife and habitats we have in the NE, you never know it may help preserve some of our most threatened habitats.
