The UK is often rather under-rated when it comes to its birds and birding experiences with many favouring the blazing colours of Tanagers and Hummingbirds in the Neotropics, Shoebills in Africa or Birds of Paradise in Papua New Guinea, but personally I feel there is a vast amount to see and explore within our shores. 

From monumental seabird cities and incomprehensible wader flocks to the mysteries of migration and the harmonies of Nightingales, we are fortunate to have a dynamic and varied avifauna. As part of the 2020 Virtual Bird Fair I produced a 15-minute lecture on Great British Birding Experiences which now available on our YouTube channel here. 

If you’d like to experience some of this in the flesh then check out both our fully inclusive, behind the scenes tours or our shorter breaks for the chance to enjoy eagles, summer-plumaged divers and grebes, the dawn chorus, displaying grouse and much, much more. Alternatively we can create some incredible day and weekend trips which will be a full-on avian assault on the senses! To find out more drop us a line here.

Watch the lecture here.

Enjoy!
