Hoylake, Parkgate & Burton Mere : 29th October 2015
After we got back from our Mallorca holiday, I was checking up on recent sightings closer to home and I ame across the monthly news at the Deeside Birding Website and it showed a high tide of 10m at around 1pm on the 29th so I suggested that we went up there as high tides are not too frequent this year – or, at least, not at a time of day that was feasible for us. A weekday high tide at mid-day couldn’t be better but I thought that 10m was perhaps not quite high enough for Parkgate so I suggested we go to Parkgate. As it happened it turned out to be a better tide and the day took a course I wasn’t expecting, ending up much better than I had expected.
