    Birding around Scarborough

    Dear all, I was wondering if anyone knew any places around Scarborough to have a couple of hours birding. I'm going with the family and was wondering if they are any coastal paths etc to walk from the centre, or anything. My internet searches are sending me to Whitby and Robin Hood's Bay. Kind...

    Looking for somewhere different in the NE

    We had a great day; thanks for the recommendation. The cafe was great and it had excellent views of the waterfowl. We saw plenty of wildlife (over 30 different types of bird). The feeding station at the Skua Hide was excellent, it included two monster rats at the bottom of the hill. It took...

    Seattle Jan 2011

    Dear All, I am travelling to Vancouver and then down to Seattle in January next year and was wondering where around Seattle would be good to go birdwatching for a day, or so. I'll be using public transport so that will probably hamper my range. Also will Sibley West Coast suffice? Any advice...

    Asking information for a trip to Florida in august 2010

    Dear Antonio, I went a couple of years ago around the same time. We stayed in the Keys, Tavernier. Around the hotel was plenty of birdlife which included nesting ospreys. I had a bit of bad luck with the hurricane (we ended up getting evacuated) and the mosquitoes (very bitey) so the birding...

    Much appreciated Mark. The way they behaved around each other just made me think it was a juvenile brown shrike. Thanks

    Thanks. The guide said something about the second one being a fake viper but I didn't know if I'd miss heard him.

    Bohol in November

    Bobby, The Philippines is truly a fantastic place. I don't think I did it justice with the amount of time I spent there. Bohol was a beautiful place. I've put my trip report on the forum (http://www.birdforum.net/showthread.php?p=1699197#post1699197). I am definitely going to go back there...

    Insects and a large spider from the Philippines

    Dear all, I saw these beetles in Bohol in the Philippines and these other insects, as well as a spider which was bigger than my head (see link below).

    Bohol, Philippines Nov 2009

    Dear all, I thought I’d email about my trip to Bohol in the Philippines in case any of you are thinking of venturing that way. I went with my girlfriend in Mid November mainly to go diving but I hoped to do a bit of birding whilst over there. We stayed on the Alona beach on Pangloa island...

    Bohol in November

    Cheers Bobby, Thanks for the advice. We were going to go to the butterfly place but now I know who to ask for I'll inquire further. I'm off next Tuesday and I can't wait. We are diving for a week and off to see the area for last week (hopefully we'll see the world's smallest monkeys and if we...

    Snakes from the Everglades

    Mike, The loop road was a bit of a tour de force. It was August last year and the mosquitoes were out in force (which did put a stop on the going the reserves around the keys) and when we drove down it was flooded in regions and we couldn't turn the car around so we had to go onwards. Bird wise...

    Snakes from the Everglades

    Much appreciated, The first two racers and cottonmouth were on the loop road at Big Cyprus. We also saw a raccoon (my first), deer, rabbits, and a land-lobster (crayfish?). They was loads about- we saw more snakes than birds. It was about 5-6 pm and the sun was blazing. The last racer was at...
