We plan to hold two outdoor trips per month – a full day outing on a Saturday or Sunday and a Thursday morning outing. On our outdoor trips, the aim is not just to see the largest number of birds, but to find and watch and enjoy. We think the pleasure comes from birdwatching with like-minded people, learning identification skills, enjoying the splendid sights and taking delighted in the unexpected find. If this whets your appetite and you feel you would enjoy these field trips, then you’d be most welcome to come along.
Booking is essential through the leader of the day and places are restricted. Time and place to meet will be given at time of booking. Car sharing is only with agreement between driver and passengers.
Details:
Weekend excursions are full day, Thursdays are usually mornings only. Thursday outings will be led by a committee member.
