Rate birdingplace NWT Buxton Heath
Description
Heathland as a habitat is fairly rare in Norfolk, so Buxton Heath is a real diamond in the rough. It has lots of paths and trails to walk on, and is a fabulous place to experience the sounds of singing Жайворонок лісовий on a spring day, and if you're lucky, churring Дрімлюга звичайний at dusk!
In the winter, the bog areas are home to Слуква лісова, Баранець звичайний and small numbers of Баранець малий. You may find Вівсянка звичайна and Трав'янка чорноголова while wandering the trails. In some winters, Шишкар ялиновий, Лунь польовий and very occasionally Сірий (Великий) сорокопуд may all be found here!
In spring and summer, listen out for the song of Підкоришник звичайний and Повзик звичайний in the woodland areas. Вівчарик весняний and Щеврик лучний can be heard along the trails, while Підсоколик великий may be seen overhead. This is a fantastic reserve to explore if you're in the area and have some time to spare.
