    Where to see my target species?

    Okay, thanks for the tip. My Zeiss scope should do the job if there's not too much heat haze.

    Where to see my target species?

    And before John accuses me of being an egg collector again, I am hoping to see Roseate Tern fishing at sea from a beach if that is possible anywhere.

    Where to see my target species?

    This time next week I'll be cruising through Kielder Forest. I have just come back from Derbyshire where I've seen Pied and Spotted Flycatcher, as well as Tree Pipit. That's 3 more species I don't have to worry about in Northumberland (although I would still love to see more of them). One last...

    Where to see my target species?

    Now seen Wood Warbler as well! Another question, is there a good place for rarity news specific for Northumberland other than rarebirdalert?

    Where to see my target species?

    As it turns out I have now seen Black Redstart, Redstart and Red-breasted Merganser closer to home. Just one more species I thought of, is there anywhere good for Nightingale in Northumberland on nearby? Thanks, Louis

    Okay, thanks both of you for the help! It seems a Willow Tit has been at Swillington Ings recently - are they regular? Thanks, Louis

    Where to see my target species?

    Thanks again for your help, I will try incorporate your suggestions into my plan. One last question, is their a particular walk you would recommend at Kielder Forest to see my target species there (particularly Crossbill and Tree Pipit) as unfortunately it seems information about it is very...

    Where to see my target species?

    Thank you very much for all the recommended sites! It seems a trip to the West of the on one day would be a great idea (Kielder Forest, Allenbanks etc.) maybe on the drive down South on the Saturday (I plan to spend Saturday night somewhere further South than Northumberland). Also, maybe an...

    Where to see my target species?

    I am planning a long weekend in the first few days of June this year and was hoping for advice on where to see my target species. One day will be spent mostly on the Farne Islands. These are my target species: Black-necked Grebe Grey Partridge Black Grouse Long-eared Owl Osprey Goshawk Lesser...
