Sunday 25/10/2009. I'm attending a "bird identification" course organised by the Tees Valley Wildlife Trust, tutors Eric James and Vic Fairbrother from the Teesside Bird Club. As the bus service on a Sunday is poor I made my way to Charltons near Guisborough (and just off the Cleveland Way) on Saturday 24th. and wild-camped on the outskirts of Skelton Warren (woods) with a short stroll to the Trust's premises in the morning, (see picture). The course was first class, the Teesside Bird Club is keen to recruit helpers for their bird surveys and I think I might give this a go, it may discipline me sufficiently to give the study-time this fascinating subject deserves. At the end of the course one of my fellow attendees gave me a lift to Thornaby and Joy drove out to pick me up. After a quick meal and wash, we then set off for a bit of time at the lodge in Keswick, before winter sets in completely.
