We go to places in East Anglia where we expect (or hope) to see and watch interesting birds and increase our ability to identify and appreciate them. Outings usually last half to three-quarters of a day. Members travel by car and lift sharing is encouraged. Appropriate clothing for the weather is needed, and a pair of binoculars are helpful.

We visit a wide variety of locations to study the birds, flora and fauna of this area of East Anglia. Most visits are within a 20-mile radius of Bury but we occasionally travel as far as the Suffolk coast. We generally meet two Tuesday mornings each month, usually 2nd and fourth, although if we are venturing further afield we enjoy a day trip, generally with a pub lunch. We are open to new members.

Driving is necessary so we encourage car sharing.…
