Bird Song in the New Forest
This was a day tour in the New Forest, focussing on identifying birds by their songs. The leader, Dominic Couzens, was excellent, tailoring his information to the varying needs of our small group, and providing a wealth of useful information and tips. Overall, a first-class day tour - highly recommended.

The Cambridgeshire Fens (Day Trip)
A lovely day exploring 2 sites on the Cambridgeshire Fens with an excellent guide who helped us to identify a huge range of birds, especially warblers, by their song (with varied success, although I am sure we all ended the day much more able to discern the different songs than at the start!) The highlight had to be the 10 minutes we spent watching a battle between a heron and an eel; at one point the eel had wrapped itself around the heron's ...

The highlight had to be the 10 minutes we spent watching a battle between a heron and an eel; at one point the eel had wrapped itself around the heron's beak, but eventually he lost the battle and was swallowed head first.
Rating for tour operator:The tour was well organised with a very knowledgeable guide.
Tempting taster!
This was a one day bird watching extravaganza in two locations. Symington marshes produces airings of a wealth of waders, ducks and passerines. After lunch mature woodland and heath land added new species.

A brilliant day out.
We had an excellent day trip with Andy looking at birds, butterflies, flowers and butterflies in the glorious area around Prawle Point. Andy was extremely knowledgeable and passed on information to us sensitively according to our knowledge. We were the least experienced but he always made sure with his excellent guidance that we could see the birds and begin to identify them by sight and sound. A really good day. Thank you.

Rutland Water Day Trip - Absolutely fantastic.
Simple day trip to Rutland Water led by Tim Appleton. Tim was friendly, helpful, enthusiastic and knowledgeable. An excellent trip that I thoroughly enjoyed and would love to repeat.
