Collared Pratincole227 viewsHeavy crop with levels slightly altered to show the reddish underwing coverts. These were very hard to see in the field. Note the absence of a white trailing edge to the wing. The tail length rules out Oriental however (it projected beyond the wingtips at rest). Paul FrenchAug 09, 2009
Footpath_closure_map_2_resize.jpg
Footpath closure at RSPB Freiston Shore233 viewsThis map shows the work area at Freiston Shore. The blue lines are the footpaths that will remain open, althouth the main footpath between the car park past the hide will be closed for short periods to allow access for machinery. There will therefore be no circular route around the lagoon for the duration of the works, but you will still be able to access the sea watching shelter and the rest of the reserve.

The Bird Club was formed in 1979, to encourage and further an interest in the bird life, birding and birdwatching of the historic county of Lincolnshire, to collect and publish information on bird movements and bird populations, bird taxonomy, bird status, to encourage conservation of the wildlife of the county of Lincolnshire and to provide sound information on which bird conservation policies can be based.

Joining the Bird Club is a great way to make new birdwatching friends and contacts in Lincolnshire! If you are a "beginner", but keen to become actively involved in birding, you will find that learning about your county's wild birds - how, when and where to see them - is both easier and more enjoyable when undertaken in the company of our local enthusiasts. If you're already an active birdwatcher you can add another dimension to your birding by becoming involved in our varied local activities.
