Wishing all members as merry a Christmas as you can make it and here’s hoping that our birding is less restricted in 2021!

Eden Centre Closure
Please see below from Ranald Strachan:
“Apologies to all but we will be closing the centre from 5pm on 13th March. This is potentially for up to 4 weeks however we will monitor public health advice and manage. The Evans hide will also be locked down.
We all need to do what we can to flatten the curve of infections and protect the most vulnerable. There is increasing evidence that ‘social distancing’ is the most effective way to do this, so by the Trust closing public buildings we endeavour to reduce the likelihood of any of our sites being the centre of an outbreak’.
The wee wooden hide by the centre is still available and of course, it’s not ‘Avian flu’ so there are still birds out on the estuary, which never closes”.

Nuthatch sightings are becoming more regular in Fife so it’s interesting to note what’s happening just over the county border in Perth and Kinross. Check the link below.

Test Post For Featured Images
This Is A Heading For The Post

Just for a change media on right.

Testing way to avoid always displaying features image in post write-up. Seems to work with Media Library images but not with Nextgen.
Could conceivably get Nextgen image into Media Library.
- Must do tomorrow
- Could wait
- Better leave

This is a nice photograph. thought it was worth drawing attention to.
Interesting that by default first sentence is located in middle of block.
Adding additional blocks does balance things out somewhat. Nevertheless still need a bit familiarity.
If I keep writing new paragraphs, what happens to the “overflow”?
A test of the verse block
