I like a spot of birdwatching. Usually it's places quite local to me such as Thurtaston Country PArk and Bidston Hill. Also we get a lot of migrating coastal birds in the Dee estuary.
Sometimes in Chester we see a raven, which is great.
Sometimes there are special ferry cruises out into Liverpool bay for the purpose of birdwatching. On last September's we watched Arctic Terns, which was very nice.
WHen I see something intereseting from now on, I'll post in this thread.
Common-fairly common for us are: bullfinches, peregrine falsons, greenfinches, great tits, blue tits, moorhens, kestrels, woodpeckers and many more, especially wader types.
In our (small, urban) garden, we only get magpies, jays, blackbirds and a few others with any regularity.
