Uplands and Estuaries Birdwatching Trip, Wales

Birding in Wales Moors and Estuaries Trip

This exciting Birdwatching Wales day trip offers a real contrast of habitats as we divide our time between upland moors and broad estuaries. Join us as we look for the special birds each of these habitats has to offer.

This exclusive day trip is for one person alone or for two people booking together to offer you the highest level of individual attention and the best possible view of the very special birds we will be looking for.

Nothing can beat being out on the moors in the early morning, watching the sun rise and listening to the atmospheric sounds of birds across the moors, this is a birdwatching Wales experience you will never forget! Expect wild open spaces, huge skies, expansive views and plenty of fresh air. We'll be looking for upland birds such as grouse and raptors. After our early start, we'll head to one of our favourite eateries to enjoy a delicious cooked breakfast/brunch before continuing our Welsh birdwatching at lower altitude on an immense estuary, such a contrast in habitat and bird species in one birdwatching Wales daytrip. Here on the estuary, we'll be looking for waders and wildfowl, and again more raptors are possible here. As we'll have made an early start, we'll finish our Welsh birdwatching around mid afternoon, with a great list of birds and a full memory (and possibly memory card if photography's your thing) of amazing bird encounters. This is a very special daytrip which we offer on a custom basis for just one person or two people booking together and one of our very favourites. We know you will love your birdwatching Wales daytrip on the moors and estuaries with us.

Highlights of your daytrip may include:

The incredible sight and sound of lekking Black Grouse
Encounters with iconic migrant species such as Wheatear, Whinchat, Common Redstart and Pied Flycatcher
Spot a Dipper or Grey Wagtail bobbing on a rock in a rushing mountain stream
Following the flight of a Goshawk in binoculars as it powers along the ridgeline
Tucking into a delicious full Welsh breakfast after an invigorating early morning's birding, it tastes so much better!
