Summer 2005
After connecting with UK's third Belted Kingfisher in April I caught up with second record of Barrow's Goldeneye in May, only this time with pictures. As the month went on It got better and better. In June there was finally a twitchable Trumpeter Finch and July provided the first twitchable Sooty Tern for 25 years
