I Saw a bit of the Lancaster canal a couple of years ago when i visited the RSBP reserve at Hest bank. only walked for about an hour. We had decided to visit Morecambe Bay and time was running out.
I'm not really a bird watcher. i like to see the different birds while i'm walking, but wouldn't go and sit somewhere just to watch them. i went with a friend, got bored and wondered off up the canal for a bit.
Of course i didn't escape the built up area, so it probably isn't the most beautiful section of the canal.
