East Anglia Trip

A full on weekend birding based in Suffolk produced some excellent results. Wicken Fen and Fowlmere in Cambridgeshire were new sites to add to our growing database. So many highlights including White Stork, flying Bitterns, hunting Hobbies and stunning Turtle Doves at Fowlmere and Titchwell

Woodlark

Several displaying Woodlark seen at Budby Common. Great to listen to the amazing song. Plenty of Yellowhammer and a 4 Mandarin Ducks too. Then onto Long Eaton GP to see a Black necked Grebe. We also saw several Sand Martin and 2 Swallow. It was also nice to see and here several Chiffchaff. We finished off at Carr vale NR for a drake Garganey

Spurn visit 13/1/11

Myself and Dave Evans had a great day's birding at Spurn on Sunday 13th. November with great weather and some cracking views of Woodlark and Great Grey Shrike. We just missed out on a Dusky Warbler that was seen at the point earlier that day. It was trapped the following day. In total we saw 60 species.
