I can virtually guarantee the following species of bird in Britain and can tailor-make trips to fit your itinerary. A package of birds are on offer in many cases, so prices may vary. I offer a Scottish Itinerary and Package (winter and spring) as well (see separate entry).

KEY

* (species marked with single asterisk available on Scottish Package Trip)

Likelihood of success: birds are coded on likelihood of connection. For example, A indicates guaranteed, B extremely likely, C above average and D very small chance.

Pricing: The prices quoted are for individual trips concentrating on just seeing that one species but for obvious reasons, many species can be combined and the same price will cater for an entire package. POA - price on application, dependent on availability
