I offer an exciting
programme of monthly outings to
some of the region's top birding
locations, without the crowds.
Each day is designed to be an
opportunity to enjoy a fully
guided, leisurely walk, with
Chris pointing out interesting
natural features, and of course
the birds! I aim to leave
Eastwood by car or minibus at
8.45am and leave each venue
around 4.30 - 5.30pm. These
Friday trips are just £20 per
person. (£22 from January 2009)

These trips are open
to anyone with an interest in the
outdoors and able to walk 3 miles
or so, at a gentle pace. As well
as enjoying the scenery and
flowers, we hope to spot a
variety of special birds as the
programme of Day Breaks
visits a range of habitats
including: freshwater, coastal,
farmland, woodland, marshland and
upland.
What the price
includes:
All guiding, with access to a 20
- 60X scope, free return
transport from Eastwood, but not
meals or reserve entrance fees
(however most venues are free
entry).
How to reach me:
I live right in the centre of
Eastwood and so am easily
accessible by public transport
from Nottingham, Ripley, Derby
and Hucknall. I also have parking
for 8 vehicles. Pick ups can be
arranged on route or from Langley
Mill Railway Station.
Interested?
Then please complete the booking
form. I will then email details
of where to send your cheque.
Once payment is received I will
send an acknowledgement, details
of the lunchtime plan for each
particular day and what you
should bring, as well as
directions to Eastwood and an
estimated cost of any entrance
fees.
I welcome both
beginners and experienced
birdwatchers to all the trips.
Each Day Break
is a small group experience - so
don't delay!
