I attended the ITA-09 conference at Glyndwr University, Wrexham. The conference was unremarkable and the conference jollies were the same as ITA-07 so I made my own 'social programme'. I met Dave G for a meal in Christleton on the first night.
Instead of a walk round Chester on the second day I chose to visit the RSPB reserve at Inner Marsh Farm, Dee Estuary, The Wirral.

It was a lovely walk down to the pools and hide in bright sunshine.
There were a wide variety of birds to see: waders, raptors and seemingly anxious to pose for their photos right in front of the hide - these stonechat
The hide was quite busy with real bird watchers and thanks to them I saw:
Curlew Sandpiper, Lapwing, Ruff, Stonechat, Linnet, Canada Geese, Cormorant, RingTail Hen Harrier, Coot, Moorhen, Snipe, Heron, Pied Wagtail, Buzzard, Egret, Wood Sandpiper,Black Tailed Godwit, Starling, Mallard, Black Headed Gull.

Maybe you should organise the social activities for the conference if they hold it there again. Looks lovely. :o)
