Yorkshire Birding Characters
For this page I thought it would be interesting to show a few pics of the "Birders" you might bump into on your travels around Yorkshire birding sites!
All are knowledgeable birders and I'm sure they'd be happy for you to introduce yourself and swap birding info with them etc.
If you'd like the "kudos" of being included on this page - either send me a pic or let me know when we meet up and I'll be happy to take one of you.
