We travel from our home in north wales, to east Yorkshire to look for rare spring accidentals on passage, then all the way the Suffolk to try and find some regional specialities for our year list. Probably the most challenging video of the year so far.

I didn't get to Minsmere that weekend as hoped after all (and still not been up there). It would have been lovely to say 'Hello'. But your schedule saw you there a day after I'd expected to go. Being a gardener, I am playing catch up due to the awful weather, so any birding I've done has been more local. I am also binge watching your latest videos too as I have fallen behind. As I watched your quest for Dartord Warbler, I wondered if you would have gone on to Dunwich Heath, overlooking Minsmere. But saw that you eventually got footage of one and the more evasive nightingale! Spoonbill and Stone Curlew too, A hard slog but you both did so well. Chilli too and cooked in a pan similar to the one I use! Anyway, I've more of your videos to enjoy, so will do that right now! Thank you for sharing your adventures, they are always a good watch!

Thanks Tony, shame we did not see you, although maybe next time. Thanks for your kind words, we really do appreciate your continued support. things are getting more difficult with the "big year" , so bit of a change on scenery soon, a trip to France is on the horizon!

Hi guys, your Big Year is very impressive with still the autumn migration to come! France sounds like a plan!! I really do enjoy viewing as we get to see the disappointments as well as the delights! Congratulations are also in order for you exceeding the 2k subs! I know more will discover you and enjoy your content! Keep up the good work, drive safely and of course, happy birding! And hopefully our paths will cross soon!

What a trip!! Love the stone curlew pictures, it was lovely meeting you both at Bempton/ Flamborough, hope to bump into you again soon, I ducked out as well 😂. I ended up at Fairburn Ings, Russ 👍👍

It was a tough weekend. Thought we didn't have a video at one point!

Lovely trip! Good job with the dartford warbler, such a cool bird to me as a swede 🙂

Do they ever get to Sweden? I only know of one record in 1994
