King's Mill Birding

The KMR Birders...

Below is a selection of pics depicting the regular and not-so-regular(!) KMR birders, at KMR and on their jollies! ALL pics on this page were taken using a Sony Ericsson K610i camera phone!!

A recent KMR Birders twitch for the Desert Wheatear in Yorkshire and the bird in question below (taken with a Sony Ericsson K610i camera phone held up to the 'scope eyepiece (!

Steve Dunn - KMR recorder, webmaster of this website and probably the most obsessive KMR birder  - "If me or any of my KMR team didn't see it then it wasn't one!"

The KMR legend, Paul Naylor, reminiscing on the glory years while eating a Scotch Egg & some crisps at 9.37am, tough guys these 'old-skool' birders ya know!!

A group photo of some of the regulars NOT doing the gull roost! Comments for this image most welcome....

Rich Chavenge (This surname was passed onto me by L.Allcock so it may be incorrect) - This character is an infrequent visitor to KMR & has yet to find us all a good bird - Must try harder!!

Rich Longstaff - aka 'Dick.EEEEEEEEEEEEEE.Bird' - Totally Dude!!!

Lester Allcock making weird blowing noises & Steve Dunn thinking 'what a Yoghurt!' 

Mike Feely - ''He dont drink coffee, he takes tea my dear, He likes his (cheese) scones buttered on both sides, you can hear it in his accent when he talks, he's a Wanlip birder at King's Mill...WooooHoooo''

Lester Allcock - ''Look into my eyes, not around the eyes...into the eyes......''

Richard & Grady Longstaff - We cant see you?? Where are you both? Must be the camo gear your wearing!!

Joan Thomas - ''Now what would you like for christmas my dear ummm??''

Lester Allcock - 'Listen! Did you hear that??! Sounded like the cafe opening....!'
