Autumnwatch Returns on 29th October on BBC2 and runs to 1st November. This year Autumnwatch will be at RSPB's Leighton Moss Nature Reserve Can't Wait.
Excellent! o
Over the moon that it's Leighton Moss as I've spent MANY happy hours there over the years...since my first visit on my honeymoon in 2001 and had THE perfect wedding present of my first ever Bittern :t: ! :t: :-O
Brilliant....Leighton Moss......I hope they visit the Forest of Bowland.
Great idea, they could film the absence of Hen Harriers and publicise the problem massively.... dream on.
Thats a good point and not only from marshes but the situation of NO breeding pairs of Hen Harrier,within the total boundary of the Cairngorms National Park.
Glad to hear that Autumn Watch shall be back soon.
Also glad to know,I am not alone with a bird story during my honeymoon...! My honeymoon In 1986 was the time In Strathspey,that I came across my first Osprey nest,while out for a romantic walk.
My new bride,did not share the same passion as I did for watching the nest on a daily basis..! (From a safe distance,I hasten to add)
They might have gone to film them at Sizergh, but not sure if they would have much chance of seeing them at this time of year.What chance of Hawfinches? Woodwell?
