Crofty Field Trip

16 March 2024 @ 09:00 - 12:30

Leader Barry Stewart: 07730 502738

High tide watch to see waterfowl (egrets, brent geese, pintail, shoveler, etc.) and waders (oystercatchers, knot, dunlin etc.) at Salthouse Point together with waterbirds that may have drifted up on the high tide (such as slavonian and great crested grebes). There should also be a selection of passerines in the scrub and on the saltmarsh, and a good chance of raptors such as peregrine and merlin.

Meet at Crofty Industrial Estate.
