Cheshire Gull Day
Saturday 17th March 2012
Thanks to some great organising by folk involved with Moore Nature Reserve and Friends of Wigg Island this day is looking really cool. Start will be 8:30 am at Moore Nature Reserve. We will be kitted out with high vis vests and hardhats, then escorted onto the mighty rubbish tip with Moore N.R. warden, Paul. A full morning on the tip will be followed by relaxed lunch and use of facilities at Wigg Island, overlooking the Mersey. Here some classroom input from me with real gull wings and all the input needed to learn and be inspired.
Then straight back out into the field to Richmond Bank which over the last weekend held 3rdw Kumliens Gull, 9 Iceland Gulls and one 1stw Yellow-legged Gull (P. Kinsella). Day finishes around 5:00/ 5:30
5 Places left: £35 per person. See your confidence and skills in identifying gulls grow. Learn stuff not yet in any books and have lots of fun along the way!

“A short email to thank you for a superb day on your Gull Master Class at Stubbers Green on Saturday 18th February 2012. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and I came away feeling ever more confident in my abilities to correctly identify some of the taxa of our common larger gulls.” Tony Davison.

“I couldn’t have hoped for a better introduction to ‘Advanced Gulls’ and I can’t wait to get back out again, armed with a bit more knowledge and, perhaps more importantly, the inspiration to continue discovering…” R. Webb
