Birding Group

This is an informal group who go bird watching about four times a year.

We usually visit RSPB or Yorkshire Wildlife reserves (for some, a cafe is an essential part of the day!) enjoying each other's company, the wonderful countryside and the splendid bird life around us, with the advantage of many pairs of eyes doing the spotting.

Our 'tick list' is now up to 139 species (to January 2012).

Might you be interested? Look out for advance notices in the weekly Noticeboard or contact Juliet Amos.
