Where are they?
ByDawnI was hoping for a Summer full of Turtle doves, but sightings have been few and far between.

To start my ‘Big 30’ project I concentrated on photographing the Avocets at RSPB Titchwell. I must admit do seem to have a lot of favourite birds, but the Avocet is definitely up there with…
