When do we meet?
Second and fourth Wednesdays every month
What do we do?
We learn to identify birds in the field by call, appearance and silhouette. A programme of visits is produced and is available in August with a mixture of full and half days out.
All the sites are within East Anglia so driving is necessary and we encourage car sharing.
Some reserves charge for non-members.
At times we do traverse rough ground and stand around, as well as using hides.
