"Wildlife Wonderland"

The Wirral was on Countryfile on Sunday night and they filmed so close to Number Fifteen. Matt Baker described this area as a "Wildlife Wonderland" with 120,000 waders and wildfowl visiting during winter. He took a boat over to Hilbre Island (the rest of us have to walk!), where, as well as the birds, you can see seals both on the sandbank and swimming around the island. My photo shows the island as seen from the end of my road.
