Saturday at Severn Beach (1 Viewer)

[Phil Andrews]

What are Gloucs birders thoughts about the weather conditions for an "estuary watch" at Severn Beach tomorrow - will birds still be blown in and/or lingering from today?

Not sure what the weather holds but the birds seem to have given god views today.
This going to work instead of birding has got to stop!

Do you know about Paul Bowerman's excellent "Severnside Birds"

http://www.severnsidebirds.co.uk/page4.html

There is some up to date news on there and I expect tide tables also.

Looks like they had a good day. I need Storm Petrel and conciderred going but had other commitments, really wish I had gone now.

From the blog detailed above 'Leach's and Storm Petrels are almost annual in varying numbers. The best place to observe these masters of the waves is in "burger bar bay", the stretch of water immediately south of the Second Severn Crossing.'

Good luck
Gareth
