    I recently accompanied my daughter on a business trip to Belfast. We had a wonderful weekend exploring the city and the north coast, but Monday and Tuesday I had to figure out what to do while she worked. Being a birder from Wisconsin, USA, I started googling birding places near me and came upon your great little birding hotspot! I loved being there and felt so at home...like if I lived in Belfast, you'd be my friends! One gentleman in particular was great fun to talk to and I regret not getting his name so I could personally thank him. Thank you all for a most enjoyable morning! I loved seeing Shelducks with about 25 babies, Black Tailed Godwits and so many Black Headed Gull babies! Mostly, thanks for making me feel welcome. Mary Prior

    My kids and I went here yesterday and had a lovely walk. The colours of autumn were very evident and it's a clean and well maintained park. A lovely respite from the bustle of the city below.

    Located just across the road from the Annadale Allotments, a former Council rubbish dump, this fantastic green space is like being nestled in the depths of the countryside.
    Ancient trees like sycamores and oaks line the path, beyond this lie Hawthorns hedges.
    Lots of Cow Parsley, or the more delicate sounding Queen Anne's Lace, grows freely throughout The Lands.
    Here you can access a bank of the River Lagan, as well as an entrance to Belvoir Forest.
    There are some well-established fruit trees growing, such as apple, plum and pear. One local school of thought is that they were planted during wartime when this area was used as Allotements due to rationing. Another opinion suggests that, in fact, the trees simply grew from fruit pips from domestic rubbish. Either way, the fields lends themselves to some worthwhile foraging in Autumn.
