Birding Group Visit to RSPB Leighton Moss : 14th October 2014
The first birding group day our after our return from Mallorca was to RSPB Leighton Moss where we were hoping – as usual – that we might get views of Bearded Tits at the grit trays. On the plus side, October is the best month for this it seems, but on the negative side we have said that every time we have been there. I, personally, have only previously seen one pair there and that was in 2009 from the Public Hide; this despite many visits. So when we arrived around 10.15am we were, of course, thinking that we were a little late in the day to be lucky. How wrong we were !
