Wirral Birding 16th May 2023
The birding group had appointed the 16th as a day for a visit to WWT Martin Mere but, as a lot of people couldn’t make it, we just went up to the Wirral to mooch around a couple of sites that I wanted to do that we don’t always do. We went to Leosowe Lighthouse, Parkgate and Denhall Quay.

Birding Group Burton Mere Wetlands 9th May 2023
The birding group had a day out to Burton Mere Wetlands on 9th May and it turned out to be a fine, warm day.

Ham Wall and Shapwick Heath 6th April 2023
After a short visit to Bristol, to catch up with friends, we moved on to Montacute to see our friends who live there. The weather looked a bit uncertain on the day we had planned to go there but we gave it a shot and managed to both avoid any bad weather and get a couple of good year ticks.
