Leigh Ornithological Society (LOS or LeighOS) are having a trip to Spurn on Sunday 2nd September. They meet in Doctor's Nook car park over the road and in front of Leigh Library at 7:00am and buddy up to share cars / petrol. They're a really friendly bunch and I'm sure you could join them and find a seat here. I'm gutted because the trip was originally on the 9th, but it's only recently been moved to the 2nd when I can't go due to family commitments.

All the necessary details as well as the full 2012-13 programme of talks and fieldtrips are on the new LOS website here (which I'm currently redeveloping for them).

Hope this helps, Martyn

(Please note the new website is on a temporary address whilst I'm setting it up and it will revert to the correct LOS address when finished)

Thanks for your responses I'll look into it in more detail. I know there is a bus on Sundays which runs to spurn, but during the week I think it's withernsea or easington. I'll check it out in more detail, might give it some proper planning and head to flamborough tomoro instead for now! Thanks for the info!

There you go. It will be a bit of a long day out though but worth it!

Cheers

A mate of mine used to get the train to Hull, then a bus to Easington. From there I'm not sure. Theres some info on the web - spurnbirdobservatory.co.uk, and I'm sure if you rang the Obs they'd be able to give you some info!

Hi Kevin.

Not a great deal of help, I'm afraid, as I don't have any details, but there was definately a bus to/from Spurn. Picked up just along from the Blue Bell crossroads towards Kilnsea. They ran into early evening at least, as we were chatting to a birder waiting to catch it when a Barn Owl flew along the top edge of the Triangle. Definately worth a 'buses to Spurn Point' google I'd say

Hello, I don't think it's possible but I was looking into going to spurn on Wednesday by public transport from Manchester. Does anyone know if it's remotely possible?
Thanks in advance Kevin
