Beskrivning
Burwell Fen is a mixture of open water, reedbed, hidden dykes and ditches and rough grazing land for Highland Cattle and Konik Horses.
Winter brings large flocks of bläsand and other common ducks. The area is regularly visited by sångsvan and the occasional mindre sångsvan. jorduggla can be seen hunting over the area.
During spring and autumn the Fen attracts passing waders and in the summer the Fen call of rörsångare and sävsångare and the reeling of gräshoppsångare can be heard.
Throughout the year brun kärrhök can be seen quartering the fen and these are joined by blå kärrhök in the winter.
Burwell Fen and Wicken Fen are also famous for the rich and diverse insect and butterfly life.
