I'm from Cantley, yourself? Yeh we have got decent birding places nearby haven't we, i think alot of places are underwatched though. The only disadvantage i have alot of the time is, it has to be pushchair friendly which limits my options on where i can go.

Any opinions would...

Lidl are selling the bresser scopes again next monday, its the 25x-75x90mm scope, its only £49.99, i'm wondering if anybody knows how they compare to the aldi scope?
Been to wentworth gardens today managed to see 3 hawfinch, 2 of which gave decents views high up in the trees around the area with the 3 dead trees up by the castle, the other was hidden in a holly bush in the stumpery and fernery walk close by, also managed 3 treecreepers and a nuthatch. Called...
Bought one of these today, i was impressed with the quality of the scope for the price! All i need to do now is find a hide clamp to fit it on to!
