Re: Friends Bird watching Walk - 31 species seen and/or heard
I'd just like to say how lovely the morning was. I particularly enjoyed the 'behind the scenes' tour of the garden.
Thanks for all the knowledge sharing, and most importantly, focusing the telescope for those of us that didn't have binoculars - it was a great help!

Re: Friends Bird watching Walk - 31 species seen and/or heard
It was a lovely morning out on the Meadows and we saw a surprising amount of birds I thought, considering the noise a group of 50 people will make!
It was great getting better knowledge of the calls of birds as well, that will help me identify more out around my garden.
