Description

Honey Hill (not to be confused with Honey Hill in Cambridge and Kent) is said by locals to have the best views in Northamptonshire. Beside the roadside layby (3 cars only) is the entrance to the site, head uphill along the long distance Jurassic Way (sometimes muddy following prolonged rain). On the grassy hill during Spring Fauvette grisette, Pouillot véloce, Fauvette à tête noire , Pouillot fitis and Fauvette des jardins are possible moving from shrub to shrub. Buse variable, Épervier d'Europe, Milan royal and Faucon crécerelle are often seen flying overhead. Pic vert are often seen feeding on areas of short grass, also during Spring Merle à plastron, Traquet motteux, Bergeronnette de Yarrell very often accompanied by Bergeronnette grise​​​. For those with limited time the walk is out and back, but for those with more time you can continue (press STARS on map) on the Jurassic Way in a big loop back to the start.
