05/02/2017 Final Day in East Anglia

Sunday 5 February 2017

The weather was dry and mild but there was a heavy morning mist so we decided not to look for the Shorelarks at Holkham, preferring to go inland to the Hawk and Owl Trust's reserve at Sculthorpe, just outside of Fakenham. This was a new reserve to me and one that I will certainly come back to again.

  • We managed to see some smashing woodland birds including 10+ Bramblings, 5-6 Bullfinches at the feeders and lots of Siskins and Redpolls in the canopy of the trees
  • Last stop of the day was Lynford Arboretum where after a long wait we were rewarded with lovely views of 2 Hawfinch.


A great trip with at least 113  species seen, including some absolute stunners.
