    Greater Manchester Birding

    There doesn't seem to be a thread for Greater Manchester on here. (If there is it must be pages back, I wonder why - no decent birds?) I'm not sure that starting one with news of a dead bird is a very auspicious start..... On my way out of the new Manchester court building (the "Civil Justice...

    Dartford Warbler - Suffolk?

    I hope someone can help. I'm taking a trip to Norfolk/Suffolk next week and was hoping to pop down to Minsmere at some point. I was wondering if there are any reliable sites for Dartford Warbler in Suffolk (I don't think there are any in Norfolk) - I had heard that Thorpeness was a possibility...

    Not sure if this is of interest to anyone but as well as four drake Long-tailed Ducks (stunning views) and a Slavonian Grebe amongst the more numerous Great-crested Grebes, I had an adult Black Guillemot about half a mile offshore from Gore Point this morning at about 9.30am. I reported this...

    Long-eared Owls at Marton Mere

    I see that there are reported to be up to 4 of these roosting at Marton Mere at present. I was thinking of taking a trip up there this weekend. Are the Owls easy to locate, as obviously I don't want to get too close and disturb them, but I can envisage struggling to pick them out from any sort...

    Having just reached 200 (201 with the Short-toed Lark on the Great Orme yesterday) on my UK life list, I was just wondering, at a rough estimate, how many people have actually seen over 100/200/300/400 and 500 different species of bird in the UK? I know that in the birding community 200 is not...

    Any Long-eared Owls at Bempton?

    I am going to see my folks in Scarborough soon. Does anyone know if there have been any Long-eared Owls around at Bempton recently or, if they are not there at the moment, what months are the best time to look for them there? The last reports I can find are from 2003. Thanks Tim
