Brockholes 16th September 2020
We ventured out on the 16th to Brockholes to pick up my scope which had been repaired by Swarovski but we didn’t do too much bird watching. It was totally different to our last visit. The children are back in school and a lot of people are back at work so it was a lot

Burton Mere Wetlands and Parkgate 8th September 2020
Our first visit to RSPB Burton Mere Wetlands since 10th March was such a pleasure. Just to be outside but not in your own garden reminded you of how much you normally take for granted. It was a beautiful, sunny, day so it felt like quite a treat. We even managed to see some Curlew

A slight improvement to the recent, poor, weather saw the birding group reschedule the previously cancelled visit to RSPB Conwy. We also wanted to try for Hawfinches at Llanbedr-y-cennin and go on to Little Orme to look for Chough. As it happens, we didn’t see Hawfinches or Choughs but we did have a good day

High Tide on the Wirral 25th February 2020
February was the wettest on record with flooding in lots of areas of the country. Although Manchester got it relatively well, it did put a damper on the birding for most of the month. Additionally, Anne still had a cast on her broken wrist and I still had a bad leg. This meant that we
