This morning I was fortunate enough to see a Kingfisher at the North Hide. This Kingfisher sat for a long time on a branch preening itself giving visitors good views. Kingfishers were also seen throughout the day by visitors at the Discovery Centre.
Today's sightings are very welcome news for the forthcoming Kingfisher Weekend the Discovery Centre are holding in two weeks time. Details below:
Kingfisher Weekend 19th & 20th Sept 10:00 am - 4:00 pm
September is one of the best months to look for Kingfishers at RSPB Radipole Lake. Why not come to this special FREE weekend event. There will be staff positioned around the reserve to help you locate these beautiful birds. There will be a Kingfisher quiz for the kids, and Kingfisher cakes on sale in the Discovery Centre. Just come in to the Wild Weymouth Discovery Centre between 10:00 am and 4:00 pm on either day, and staff will direct you from there. We can even hire you a pair of Binoculars. Tel 01305 778313 for details.
