    Help with Owl challenge please

    Hello, I am staying in Warrington for another week and a half before returning to Australia. Could anyone please recommend where I could go to get some photos of any of the country's owl species without having to travel too far? Thank you all in advance, Graham

    Lundy Island and any other South West Puffin suggestions

    I have only just stumbled upon this thread, but it's a great laugh. Some people have far too much spare time on their hands.

    Hello from Emma in Nottinghamshire

    Hi Emma, You'll find that it's a strangely addictive hobby and you're never too far away from a patch of interest to build up your bird ID over here. There's some great resources on the RSPB site if you're new. Enjoy. - Graham

    Hi from Melbourne, Australia

    Hello Cat, I'm in the UK, but from Melbourne so I'm happy to give advice on spots to explore if you're interested. I got interested in birds via photography with my 400D around Altona when I relaised that there were some interesting birds worth taking photos of. My poor 400D came to grief...

    Christmas time birding in the Nth West (Cheshire)

    Thanks for the replies so far. I'm staying in Warrington (Burtonwood). I'll be fairly happy to see whatever I come across as it will be fresh to me. I do like my owl species though, so would love to come across one or two - our owl species can be fairly elusive, so I don't know what the...

    Christmas time birding in the Nth West (Cheshire)

    Greetings all, I'll be visiting Cheshire over Christmas-mid January and wonder if anyone could offer any good spots to visit in the region for a good spread of species. My previous visits to the UK were prior to an interest in birding, so I'll be happy with whatever I can get some photos of...

    hi from vic,australia.

    Hi Casey, I'm also in Victoria (Melbourne). My interest in birds also grew from my photography around my local area which happens to have its share of interesting birds. We're fortunate to have many nice spots down this way which offer a diverse range of species. It can turn into a strangely...

    any teenage birdwatchers in melbourne?

    G'day Squirrenguin, I can't help you with any birding teenagers as such, but can only suggest you try the Field Naturalists Club or BOCA (Bird Observers Club of Australia) to see if they have any teenagers on their books. I've only taken up birding in the last couple of years and wish I'd...

    G'day

    Stooge, My knowledge of birds in Western Port is pretty limited. But I am planning on undertaking a bird survey exercise at some point at a bushland reserve in Garfield for a Management Plan - and personal interest. Are you ever in that area? I'd like to get hold of some experienced eyes to...
