Happisburgh Birding Diary |
Situated on the coast in NE Norfolk, Happisburgh is an excellent place in which to see many of the different bird species that occur in Norfolk each year. Although lacking any sizeable areas of open fresh water, there is a range of habitat in which common, scarce and sometimes rarer birds can be found.
A local resident has just set up a blog at http://happisburghparishbirding.blogspot.com/ to diarise his bird sightings within Happisburgh and adjacent parishes throughout the year. He's hoping that other people with an interest in birds/wildlife, either local residents or visitors to the area, will find this an interesting and beneficial project. |
