The Very Best of Anglesey Daytrip

This is one of our most popular guided birdwatching daytrips and is the perfect introduction to birdwatching on the Isle of Anglesey at any time of year. We tour this beautiful island visiting the very best birdwatching locations, including forest, estuaries, seacliffs and lagoons, where we will look for the special birds and mammals each of these varied habitats has to offer. Some of Anglesey's resident birds include charasmatic and wonderful Chough, Black Guillemots, Marsh Harriers, Peregrine Falcons, Great Crested Grebes, Lawings, Stonechats and so many more. The island has so much to offer in the winter too with huge flocks of ducks and geese, masses of waders, divers and grebes, raptors and so much more. In Spring returning migrants are always exciting to look for and anything can and does turn up! Seabirds will be back at their colonies including Atlantic Puffins, Sandwich, Common and Arctic Terns so wonderful to watch. In summer May - July the seabird colonies are the main attraction but also a great time to enjoy warblers, breeding raptors and passage waders. In Autumn the pace of migration quickens and a fantastic time to be out looking for birds the chance of the unexpeted is high perhaps a Black Redstart or a Yellow-browed Warbler to add to the wonderful mix of birds passing through. It is quite possible to see a Swallow on the same day as a Snow Bunting! Whatever time of year you visit you will be thrilled by the variety of birds and beautiful scenery Anglesy has to offer, come and join us!

Throughout the year we tour the best birdwatching locations on the island, looking out for the resident speciality birds including the charismatic Chough and Black Guillemot. In early summer, we will visit the busy seabird colonies and in autumn we'll keep an eye out for returning migrant waders. Winter brings its own excitement with flocks of wintering geese, ducks and waders. At any time of year we may encounter Atlantic grey seals, harbour porpoises and engaging red squirrels. Expect plenty of birds and other wildlife on this bird-packed, fun-filled, guided birdwatching day out on the Island of Anglesey!
