This very local reserve is a great mixture of habitats including chalk stream, wet meadows, woodland, scrub and open farmland.Tony will guide you on how to identify the birdsong that you will encounter along the way. We would expect to find Song Thrush, Green Woodpecker, Whitethroat, Kingsfisher, Yellowhammer, Reed Bunting and Treecreeper. There’s also the possibility of Mistle Thrush, hirundines, Water Rail and Bullfinch too.
Distance approx. 1-2 miles.
Perhaps you might want to arrange to meet with friends afterwards for breakfast ;-) (not included)
