Description

Wykeham Raptor Viewpoint is a short walk through a pine or conifer forest and then several benches overlooking the valley. Very good spot for Тетеревятник year round, but especially in late winter when they're displaying. In summer a good spot for Обыкновенный осоед. Канюк, Сапсан and Красный коршун also present. In the adjacent forest Клёст-еловик, Чиж and Снегирь can be seen, with very occasional Обыкновенный дубонос in winter.
