    Accommodation on Shetland next September headache

    Our group of 3 birders normally do Scilly or Shetland each autumn and after a run of 3 years on Scilly, we decided to visit Shetland next year. I immediately noticed two things, compared to previous years, in that accommodation seems lacking and the price has shot up, especially if looking in...

    Spring Migration, Lake Erie, Ontario, Canada, May 2022 (14/05/2022 – 22/05/2022.

    I've been following the sites on eBird for a few years, this along with the available literature, points to the second and third week of May being the best time. If I repeated the trip again, I'd probably make the first full days birding around 10/05. This said I cant grumble with the number of...

    Spring Migration, Lake Erie, Ontario, Canada, May 2022 (14/05/2022 – 22/05/2022.

    Thanks and glad you enjoyed it. I hope to go back at some point in the future, to get some of those missing warblers. Mark the guy I was with, has previously founds his own Golden-winged Warbler at Pelee and Kirkland’s Warbler at Rondeau!

    Pelee or Rondeau spring 2022?

    Thanks for the info, I actually used to work for a chemical company based in Sarnia, so I’ve flown from the UK to Chicago and then onto Detroit, before driving over the border. Unfortunately it was completely the wrong time of year for birds. I used to find the US/Canadian border tough going...

    Pelee or Rondeau spring 2022?

    So Covid-19 allowing, my spring 2022 plan is to head from the UK to Ontario for spring warbler migration. My question is, do I primarily base myself at Point Pelee or Rondeau Provincial Park? Clearly Point Pelee is the more well known destination, but looking at ebird this Spring, Rondeau seems...

    Fair Isle Bird Obs Closing for Good?

    Why did they need to raise that huge sum of £650k to rebuild it after the fire, when according to this, they were able to claim on their insurance? http://www.fairislebirdobs.co.uk/insurance.html
