Spent the whole of Saturday at the fair and has a fabulous time. The layout seemed similar to last year's and it was busy without being too busy, so it was easy enough to find time to chat with folks from the BTO and some of the travel companies that I was interested in.
Purchased a few bits and bobs for the scope and came away with a mountain of brochures.
Also managed to see some nice birds around the lagoons in the afternoon. - 2 Green Sandpiper - Snipe - 14 Ringed Plover - 2 Greenshank - 3 Black-tailed Godwit - Dunlin - 30+ Common Tern - Hobby - Osprey
Little Gull and Gargeny were also seen in the area.
Staying with friends in Wellingborough and planning on spending Saturday there. I expect that I shall return with more than enough holiday ideas if not a piece of equipment or two. Either way, it'll be expensive but fun! :)
