Day Out to WWT Martin Mere 25th November 2012
Day Out to WWT Martin Mere 25th November 2012] It was the North-west Bird Fair over the weekend so we managed to get up there on the second day.

Day Out To RSPB Conwy 21 November 2012
Day Out To RSPB Conwy 21 November 2012 We had stayed over from the previous day staying at the Deganwy Spa hotel which was pricey but nicely located on the estuary.

Birding Group Visit To Frodsham Marshes 30th October 2012 As soon as I got out of the car I had a quick look at the telegraph wires that run across the field to the left side of the parking place we use and they had scatterings of Starlings lined along them. Occasionally something would get them going and many more would rise up from the…

Birding Group Visit To Hilbre Island 22nd October 2012
Birding Group Visit To Hilbre Island 22nd October 2012 Usually when we go to Hibre Island we have to brave a lot of wind and usually some rain as well. Today was completely different and the day was warm and completely windless. This mean that a t-shirt would have been the best attire because after a brisk walk across the sands we got pretty warm.…
