    Travel Companies in Kerala

    Hi, I wonder whether anyone can recommend any reliable travel companies that do birding trips from the Cochin area? My mother, who is 76, is going there in December to visit a school she supports, and she would like to spend about 8 days on a trip, with walking, birding and boating. She is...

    Feathers, tracks, pellets and bird tables

    Hi Tintageu, I have three cats, and the problem is that the bells on their collars for warning off birds get stuck to the cat-flap-opening magnets, so they don't ring! So for the bird table. I have a 7 foot, smooth metal pole as the stand, placed fairly near an apple tree. This has no ground...

    Help required for a feature, all responses more than welcome...!

    Hi Sarah, I am new to the Forum - only been here a couple of weeks. I have been birdwatching for a while but a recent holiday has fired me to pay more attention and I joined the site to find like-minded people as my own family are not that interested. It's a friendly site and people have been...

    Hi From WI bird photographer

    Hi Jemini, I'm in England, but my sister lives in Milwaukee, so have visited there a couple of times. We were there at this time of year a couple of years ago -it's very pretty - and we had great birding in Doctor's Park one summer as well. Anji

    Cerney Lakes

    What a beautiful day! Tempted to abandon tidying up the garden in favour of a quick wander round Swillsbrook and Freeth Mere in the afternoon. Gave in to temptation, natch! Widgeon, Gadwall, Shoveller,Grebe, Pochard, Red Crested Pochard, Goosander, Mute Swans, Tufted Duck, Mallards, loads of...

    Bristol

    One other question, if you don't mind. I went to see the starlings at Slimbridge this week, and they aren't stopping there this year. Is there any where near Bristol where they are roosting? A friend said she watched them near Burtle on the Somerset Levels, but she couldn't remember exactly...

    Roosting starlings on the river Severn

    Went to Slimbridge on Monday and there were no starlings! A few flocks went by heading south. Apparently they are not stopping there this year, but according to a man who works there, they are going towards Purton. But the Bewicks are there and apparently pink-footed geese, but they were being...

    Many thanks, boys! That should liven up my afternoons for a while, as long as the weather is like today. Otherwise it's 3 hours in Borders! Cheers Anji

    Bristol

    hi, I have to be in Bristol in the Clifton Downs area for 3 hours every Sunday afternoon. Can anyone recommend good places to go birding from there? So far, I have been on the downs, and walked the woodland as far as the suspension bridge. I don't mind driving a little way, but it gets dark...

    What are your birds eating?

    Hi everyone, we have more goldfinches than anything else - occasionally more than 20 all trying to get on the one niger feeder! Gill, great to see w'pecker! We had fun last year when our nearest pair were teaching their baby to use the nut feeder. It wasn't quite brave enough at first to land...

    North WIlts

    Hi there, Thanks for that - joining up for the Swindon group is on my list of things to do today. Devizes is a bit of a stretch from here. Anji

    Another Hello

    Well, thankyou for the welcome! Off to clean the feeders now, having been away for 2 weeks birdwatching in The Gambia. Lucky or what? Have a good day, see you all around. Anji

    Not a total beginner, but not far off; be nice to find regular watchers in my area for company, and help if I promise not to ask too many questions! Anji

    Which birds can't perch on a wire?

    We saw a grey heron on a wire in North Wilts the other day, by the road between Malmesbury and Swindon. How on earth did it land, let alone cling on? Anji

    Another Hello

    That's all! Be nice to chat to people who are interested in watching birds - unlike my family who just raise their eyebrows! :) I'm a bit of a beginner at this, but have very good intentions. Watching mostly around North Wilts, UK. Anji
