Can barely believe what I’ve just read: a monumentally daft book clearly trying to be serious and profound, and yet only managing to be utterly implausible. At least it was set in lovely #Dorset. #EmmaTennant #Beaminster #Abbotsbury #IsleofPortland #Melplash #Mapperton #ChesilBeach

6 Great Egrets just dropped in, still a bit of a novelty at the Swannery compared to abundant Little & Cattle. No sign of the Glossy Ibis though. @joestockwell.bsky.social @dorsetbirdclub.bsky.social #abbotsbury

Glossy Ibis (1cy) dropped into the Swannery Grounds at around 4.30 this afternoon. @joestockwell.bsky.social @dorsetbirdclub.bsky.social #Abbotsbury

After successfully seeing a Dipper on the River Frome went on to tick off a bucket list location! #Abbotsbury #dorset #stunningviews #dippers @dorsetbirdclub.bsky.social
