SUMMARY:Starlings on the Somerset Levels
DESCRIPTION:Leader: Amanda Sultan-Black\nGet ready for a spectacular natural event!  We’re headed to RSPB Ham Wall in the Somerset Levels\, one of the best places in the country to witness the breathtaking winter starling murmurations. We have planned our visit for early February to maximise our chances of seeing this incredible aerial display. If our timing is right\, we could be treated to the sight of hundreds of thousands of starlings performing their mesmerising “ballet” as they come in to roost. \nBut that’s not all! We’ll spend the early afternoon exploring other parts of the reserve\, where we’ll have a good chance of spotting and hearing the elusive bittern. The reserve is also a haven for a wide variety of wintering ducks and waders. We’ll keep a lookout for predators like Marsh Harriers and peregrines that are often seen marauding the skies. \nTo make the day even better\, we’ve booked a table for a delicious\, great-value Sunday roast at the Ring of Bells in Moorlinch at 12:00 pm. \nWhat could be a better way to spend a winter day? \nWe will coordinate lifts and lunch orders through our WhatsApp group.

SUMMARY:Frampton in Winter
DESCRIPTION:Leader: Nick Goatman\nYou may have just finished the last of the turkey\, and your body weight might just be 80% mince pies but it’s time to shake out of that post-festive stupor and get your year list off to a cracking start.  What better way to do it than with our ever-popular seasonal trip to Frampton\, led by local patch officianado Nick Goatman? \nFrampton\, with its diverse range of habitats\, offers a great opportunity to see some excellent birds. At the time of posting\, there was a Yellow-browed Warbler on site.  The Yellow-browed Warbler is a tiny bird from Siberia\, characterised by its distinctive yellow “eyebrow.” Finding one in Gloucestershire now is pretty unusual; though\, eerily\, there was one here last January.  The bird is completely lost! Instead of flying southeast to spend the winter in warm places like Thailand\, it took a wrong turn and flew to the west to England. \nIn addition to this little gem\, we should see good numbers of wildfowl\, ducks\, egrets\, geese and swans together with an assortment of other birds. We meet at the car park art the end of the green at 8:30am \n
