Whether you are a beginner or an improver you might like to come along to one of the courses below, covering a variety of aspects for the birdwatcher and a separate course for those wishing to do wildlife photography. Whilst there are clear learning objectives there is also an important emphasis on relaxation and field activity with as much help available as you would like.

I started off running courses all over the country at a variety of residential centres. Over the years it has been sad to see some of these organisations becoming consumed, sold off or simply deciding to abandon learning holidays for adults in favour of other things. Higham Hall has managed to escape this trend and continues under it's independent status to provide high-quality courses and events.
