Sandpipers at RSPB Burton Mere Wetlands 26th July 2013
Sandpipers at RSPB Burton Mere Wetlands 26th July 2013 After being stuck at home with flu, it was nice to get out for the day and we chose Burton Mere because I had read that there had been sightings of a few Green Sandpipers and a single Wood Sandpiper. So with our hopes raised we drove up there to see what we could see on…

Visit to RSPB Conwy : 19th July 2013
Visit to RSPB Conwy : 19th July 2013 On our way back from Anglesey to Manchester we stopped off at The Spinnies, Aberogwen, near Tal-y-Bont and then went on to RSPB Conwy. It was another boiling hot day so we were glad of a tea break and a sit down before going round the reserve. The notice board was showing that a Green Sandpiper had…

Visit to The Spinnies, Aberogwen : 19th July 2013
Visit to The Spinnies, Aberogwen : 19th July 2013 We visited South Stack, the Fish Harbour at Holyhead and Cemlyn Bay yesterday and we were wending our way back to Manchester slowly so we decided to take the Tal-y-Bont turning and drop in for a quick walk along the beach at the Spinnies Reserve. I had been there on a birding group visit about five…

Visit to Cemlyn Bay : 18th July 2013
Visit to Cemlyn Bay : 18th July 2013 Whenever we go to Anglesey we make sure to go to the North Wales Wildlife Trust’s reserve at Cemlyn Bay to see the nesting Terns. Again we were a bit late in the year so we were not sure what to expect but, sure enough, there was no shortage of Terns. As we arrived and parked up…

Visit to the Fish Dock at Holyhead : 18th July 2013
Visit to the Fish Dock at Holyhead : 18th July 2013 After we left South Stack we dropped in at the Fish Dock at Holyhead on the off chance that we might see the Black Guillemots there again and, very obligingly, not only were they there but they gave us a fine flying display showing off their red bills and legs beautifully. There were about…

Visit to RSPB South Stack : 18th July 2013
Visit to RSPB South Stack : 18th July 2013 We have had an absolute wash-out of a Spring and it has prevented us this year from going to some of our usual haunts at that time. These would normally include a seabird colony or two but this year we had not got to one during Spring and we had left it a little late in…

Visit to Woolston Eyes 16th July 2013
Visit to Woolston Eyes 16th July 2013 We had previously been to the “open day” at Wooston Eyes on the 30th of June but we were keen to return there when the reserve was a bit quieter. We were told that they had four hundred visitors that day and it certainly felt like it. We had been so impressed with the site that we joined…
