Birdwatching Group

Our birdwatching group has been set up for people who enjoy seeing various birds but need help in identifying what they see or hear. We go out on an ad hoc basis, usually once a month to various reserves and parks. If you would like to suggest any reserves that we could visit, it would be most welcome. If anyone has a specific bird that they would like to see I would be happy to try and make this happen.

We usually meet at Eversley Car Park for car sharing to reduce costs. We are a very friendly group and would welcome any new members to join us on a trip.

If you require any further information, please contact me by e-mail.

I am arranging a trip to Filey . This will be on Monday the 4th November. We will meet at Eversley at 08.30 for car sharing. We will visit Filey Dams first as this is on the way to the Brigg. The cost will be £24 per car plus car parking, but more if we go on to Flamborough. If you are interested in going please reply to my new gmail address l.Anyone going straight there please let me know. We can have lunch in Filey. Please bring suitable clothing for standing on a cliff top. Not sure if the cafe at the Brigg will be open so might be an idea to bring a flask of coffee.

Sunday, 19 April 2020 - Majorca 5.00am - Alcudia

Majorca 19^th April to 26^th April 2020

I am arranging another birdwatch trip this time to the sunny island of Majorca. The dates I have in mind are from 19^th April to 26^th April 2020 . The flights will be from Leeds Bradford, and the holiday company is Jet 2 . They give a generous allowance for luggage at 22kgs and 10kgs hand luggage. We will be stopping at the northern end of the island at a place called Alcudia. The stay will be on a self catering basis. The hotel I am looking at is The Olive Beach, this is quite a modern place. The prices at the moment are £376.00 for a double room and £497.00 for single occupancy, plus the cost of car hire and car parking at Leeds Bradford. These prices could change if I have to book with a different hotel. There would be an initial non-refundable deposit of £60.00 per person with the balance due some time in February 2020.

We will be visiting different types of habitat for seeing a wide variety of birds, including Eleanoras Falcon, Black and Griffin Vultures, Firecrest, Crossbills and many more.

If you are interested in this trip PLEASE LET ME KNOW AS SOON AS POSSIBLE please !.

The group will be limited to a manageable size.
