Thanks to

I personally leaned a lot and hope to improve my skills following the session


Thanks Martyn A

Hi Andy really glad you managed to get to see the kingfisher and get a photo too, looks like the hunt is on now for more. i have seen them at moses gate country park but only as a flash of blue as they fly away but have heard they can be seen on the river near the foot bridge so will be checking it ...

Yes John the hall is looking really good and appreciate all the hard work Neil is putting in to make it so.

Big Thanks Neil

Yes Andy it was a thrill,
only ever seen kingfishers as a flash of blue as the fly off so i was really pleased to get photos.

Hi Mike

It was about 10 minutes after you had gone, i was just packing up my self when it arrived.

Thanks Martyn

Hi Andy

We managed to see the kingfisher at the Ron Barker hide from the right hand side at ground level. Hope that helps.
