USA 2011
2011 was a busy year for me as I travelled to the USA for three trip with Opticron. I attended three Bird Festivals,
the San Diego Bird Festival in March, The Midwest Birding Symposium in September and finished the year in Texas in November at The Rio Grande Valley Birding Festival.
These are some of the images that I got whilst attending those three events
