    How to see Leach's Petrel

    Can get there at 5:30ish tonight. I'm thinking New Brighton or the gun site due to the tide. Are they sensible choices?!

    Tunisia tours, guides etc?

    Cheers Steve. Not used Birdingpal before, looks like a good site. I have made contact so will hopefully receive a response. Thanks again.

    Tunisia tours, guides etc?

    Hi, Can I assume from the lack of replies that you didn't manage to find a guide?! I have just posted a new thread asking a similar question. We are planning to go to Hammamet so any feedback would be welcomed! Cheers, ST

    Tunisia October - Sites & Guides? Please!

    Hi, I am thinking of visiting Hammamet, NE Tunisia with my girlfriend on a "non-birding" holiday in October this year. I will only get the chance to have 1 day birding and so would like to see as many Tunisian/African specialities as possible. I wondered if anyone could recommend any local...

    How to see Leach's Petrel

    Can possibly make it tonight but I won't be there until 5:30-6 at best. I imagine the tide will be well out then. Would New Brighton be the best option? Cheers

    How to see Leach's Petrel

    Got the opportunity to come over from West Yorks this eve. I appreciate guarantees can't be made but can I assume I'd be in with a good shout? My concerns being that the wind appears to be set drop around 6 (approx arrival time) and low tide late afternoon. With the tide in mind, I'm assuming...

    Mesa at Christmas

    I am a keen birder from West Yorkshire, England and I am fortunate enough to be spending the Christmas period is Mesa, AZ this year. Although most of my time will be devoted to family activities, I am hoping to be able to negotiate a full dawn to dusk day of birding. My aim for this day would be...

    Spurn Point tomorrow ?

    In my opinion, Spurn is always worth the trip. The wind is more important than the weather really though the winds haven't been particularly favourable this autumn as yet i.e. no notable Easterlies. The sightings page gives you a flavour of what is about at the minute...
