Birding Group RSPB Conwy and Little Orme 15 February 2022
Despite some predicted rain, the birding group braved a trip to North Wales with visites to RSPB Conwy and Little Orme. The former was pretty much as expected with a good range of, mostly, small numbers of ducks and waders but Little Orme turned out to be exceptional with a good number of year ticks,

Neumann’s Flash 8th February 2022
On 8th February we had a birding group trip to Neumann’s Flash on what was quite a mild and dry morning. We took the usual route round the site and, as is often the case, there weren’t many species on the water; a couple of Wigeon, a single Tufted Duck and lots of Gulls and

Burton Mere Wetlands, Parkgate and Denhall Quay 20th January 2022
A cold sunny day took us up to the Wirral on a cold but dry day. We got some good birds and, of course it being January, some good “year ticks” right at the start of the birding year that we hope will be better than the last two Covid dominated years.

Birding Group : Pennington Flash 11th January 2022
The first birding group day of the term was to Pennington Flash. Unusually it was quite still and, although cold, was not as Siberian as it often is. The January year ticks continued with all the ducks that are usually at Pennington. We had some nice passerines in the woods and from the Bunting hide
