BTO Oscars 2013

Last night saw me at the Mall Galleries, a stone's throw (if you were using a high powered catapult) from The Queen's Gaff to ogle at an art exhibition put on by the Society of Wildlife Artists (SWLA). The evening was hosted by the British Trust for Ornithology and they were honouring and awarding outstanding members of the ornithological community.

The SWLA are celebrating their 50th year and have produced a book featuring the work and artists involved in the Society. It's a limited edtion and is stacked with damn fine work!

Sounds like a good bash, i had the pleasure of meeting LS on the Scillies in the 80's and he kindly autographed my 'Svensson' ringing guide....
