Nature notes and a record of species recorded from in and around Felbrigg Park.

Thursday 2 January 2014

A few more species added

With better weather than yesterday, another 15 species of birds were noted around the park today including a pair of Egyptian Geese, Red-legged Partridges, Green Woodpecker, Jay, Mistle Thrush, Redwing, Sparrowhawk and a few Bramblings. As dusk approached the Little Owl appeared in its usual tree and was heard calling to a second bird, and a Tawny Owl also gave a few hoots from the woods, but the biggest surprise of the day was a Bat species which dashed overhead through the trees as darkness fell.
