New book details Cheshire’s history of rare bird sightings

A new book documenting the history of Cheshire and Wirral’s rarest bird sightings is set to be launched at RSPB Burton Mere Wetlands, near Neston.

Written by two of the RSPB Dee Estuary reserve’s local birdwatchers, Allan Conlin and Eddie Williams, with drawings by renowned illustrator Ray Scally, ‘Rare and Scarce Birds of Cheshire and Wirral’ is a must-have for any Cheshire or Merseyside bird enthusiast.

The event takes place on Saturday 9 September between 10am and 4pm. No booking is required.

The book will be available to purchase, priced £24.99 with 10% of sales on the day to be donated to the RSPB Dee Estuary reserve. Only cash can be accepted for book purchases.

The date coincides with the first day of the Wirral Wader Festival, handy for anybody attending the events at nearby Hoylake and West Kirby.
