Sunday Feb 24th - North Wales

Amber and I will be off to RSPB Conwy and Llanfairfechan with the local group. I know this is Dave's neck of the woods, and look forward to meeting him.

Anyone else able to get there, feel free to say hi, buy us a coffee, etc.... Smile

Oh, and could all Canons be kept in a brown paper bag  Cool Orc

Think the cafe at Conwy opens at 10am, but if weather is fine I will be there a bit earlier

Carl - what time are you planning to get to Conwy?
carlj

Dave,

Can't say for definite, but we leave Stoke at 7.15am, stop for about 40 mins at a service station (probably outside of Chester) then non-stop all the way - probably 10.30 arrival if recent trips are anything to judge by!

To avoid confusion, I'll be the Minolta owner with the Tamron 200-500mm, unlike my friend Rob, who'll be the Minolta owner with the Sigma 170-500mm Smile

Oh, and I've got glasses, and a partner with a crutch and a pentax (not related :D)

Look forward to having a coffee with you mate!

And Blue, using a few thousand miles as an excuse. I don't know, people today.....  Laughing

cheers

Weather's given as awful, we'll be there as we're committed (or should be  Very Happy ).

No problems there Dave - a cup of coffee to wake me up after two early starts will be needed!
hil26

Look forward to it

Leo.

Cheers Leo, loved putting faces to the names, hope you werent too disappointed.

Pity Carl was time Limited - he was on a coach which was on a mission.

Weather was not very nice for walking around an RSPB reserve

Pity it was time limited - quality rather than quantity though - really enjoyed meeting you all! Conwy is a lovely place, and deserves better weather than we got. Llanfairfechan saw a marked improvement - though as we were heading home. It's a good place for birding, though mainly at a distance. Egret showed well, and ended up stalking a curlew across a football field - called him Neville, as he was in the right back position!

Once again, Amber and I loved meeting you all - and though we've no North Wales birding trips before Autumn, are pretty much guaranteed a trip to Llandudno over next couple of months. Maybe all meet up again, possibly Victorian festival?
