If you're an avid "twitcher", you'll know The Big Day is coming up on May 5th and the focus this year is on shorebirds.  So we've teamed up with Terry Venables, nature photographer, to bring you two chances to get out on the water with us and with Terry.  

Our first run out will be at 10 am and you'll have 1.5 hours on the water to tally up with Terry!  There will only be 11 spots on board for each trip- so if you're doing a group count - sign up quickly!

Round Two will head out at 1 pm for an afternoon of bird watching, counting and whatever else we might see along the way.  We'll be out on the water for 1.5 hours and yes, Terry Venables will be with us! 

As always - weather permitting and we'll all be hoping that by May 5th it will be a safe bet!
