An opportunity to meet other members who have joined us in the past few months. Find out more about Cornwall Birds over a coffee and tea cake. Then we’ll go for a short walk to the hides overlooking the Tamar Estuary and Kingmill Lake. Timed to catch the rising tide when waders and wildfowl will be moving onto the saltmarsh to roost, we should see a variety of species including maybe Avocet and Spoonbill.

Meet in the Brasserie at the China Fleet Club, Saltash. PL12 6LJ. Free car parking ///teacher.diverts.interacts. There are various bus routes to Fore Street Saltash which is 1.2 miles from China Fleet Club and the nearest train station is Saltash, 1.6 miles from China Fleet.

Dress according to the weather, stout shoes or boots. Level ground but steps up into the hides. Don’t forget your bins… and a telescope is helpful too.
