As the winter slowly sets in our Winter Walks are now starting at RSPB West Sedgemoor , which take you out to view the birds across the reserve. On Thursday 8th November on one excursion Marsh harrier, Sparrowhawk, Hen harrier, Peregrine, Buzzard, and Kestrel could all be ticked on the raptors list, while Wigeon, Teal, Mallard, Lapwing, Golden plover, Snipe, and small numbers of Pintail, added to the bulk of numbers. Added to this, and the highlight for many, was the flock of Cranes which flew over, made up of this years and previous years releases of The Great Crane Project.
