Birding Group Visit to Carsington Water : 25th February 2014
Birding Group Visit to Carsington Water : 25th February 2014 Carsington Water was a first for me although the birding group have been there before. On the down side, although the distance isn’t too great, the roads are so slow that it took us two hours to get there. As it happens it was well worth the travel as we managed to get a life…

Birding Group Visit to Marbury Park 18th February 2014
Birding Group Visit to Marbury Park : 18th February 2014 We missed the previous weeks birding group visit which was supposed to be to Neumann’s Flash but I believe the weather and a few other cancellations led to the few remaining people able to go, calling it off after sitting in a car for fifteen minutes looking at the rain. Today was much better, though,…

Birding Group Visit to Pensarn : 4th February 2014
Birding Group Visit to Pensarn : 4th February 2014 After the birding group visit to RSPB Conwy we were going to go to Llandullas but I suggested that Pensarn might be a better place to go.

High Tide at Parkgate : 2nd February 2014 Whenever we can we try to get to Parkgate for a high tide. This was a Sunday, the highest tide of the period and also a nice day – a guarantee that the place would be heaving with people and indeed it was. Despite getting there two and a half hours before the high tide, we were…

Birding Group Visit : Pennington Flash : 28th January 2014
Birding Group Visit : Pennington Flash : 28th January 2014 The first birding group date of the year that I could turn out for was the visit to Pennington Flash. It had been scheduled to be Redesmere but, as ever with Redesmere, it was changed to Pennington due to the wet weather. However, a new year begins a new year list so I was keen…
