There are many good places to see birds in our beautiful county of Hertfordshire and in the surrounding counties.  We are building here a set of notes about those that we visit to tempt you to join us on some of our field trips and to help you make selections for your own outings.  Please note that conditions on the ground, accessibility and entry charges can change and that sightings of birds and animals on previous visits is no guarantee of seeing them in the future.  Information about visiting all RSPB Reserves can be found on the RSPB Web Site.
