Bid our dear friends adieu eh? Which friends might they be may I ask? It looks like they've bid adieu to us...one by one.
Such impending festivities do indeed draw people away from routine pastimes. Our birding trips have just about finished for this year anyway, but New Years day (weather permitting) will see us off again, making a fresh start on a new tick list for 2009.
