A NEW book documenting the history of Cheshire and Wirral’s rarest bird sightings will be launched at RSPB Burton Mere Wetlands near Neston.
‘Rare and Scarce Birds of Cheshire and Wirral’ has been written by two of the reserve’s local birdwatchers, Allan Conlin and Eddie Williams and contains drawings by renowned illustrator Ray Scally.
A launch event will take place on Saturday, September 9 between 10am and 4pm - no booking is required.
The book will be available to purchase at £24.99 with 10% of sales on the day 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.
