We spent our Easter weekend in Suffolk, staying at a superb Pub in the quaint village of Dunwich. A few miles from Minsmere, 5 minutes from the National Trust reserve of Dunwich Heath and a short drive to the small towns of Southwold and Aldeburgh. A few hours each day was spent at Minsmere and […]
Sunday 9th April and a stunning day was spent at Rutland Water and Eyebrook Reservoir, both locations in Leicestershire and two of my favourite local birding sites. An adult summer Little Gull was feeding over the lagoon at the main reserve of Egleton at Rutland Water and several Osprey were seen during the day. Disappointingly there

The over wintering Great Northern Diver and Black-necked Grebe were showing really well in the harbour at Scarborough, but the early morning weather was really grey
Just back from a few days away in Dorset, staying at one of our favourite places on the Studland peninsular. Only away a couple of nights, so not a great deal of time to do any proper birding and we also caught the tail end of Storm Doris on Thursday 23rd Feb. Despite a lovely
Birding this last weekend was a somewhat mixed bag. An unseasonal Bluethroat had been performing very well at a local Nature Reserve near Spalding in Lincolnshire for the past week and despite the many Waxwings around this winter, I had not really caught up with any. A brief view of a single bird in Norfolk was
