Immerse yourself in the sounds of nature’s concert – the Dawn Chorus.
At this time of year RSPB Ham Wall is bursting with wetland nature singing in full voice. On this guided walk we’ll be hoping to catch up with charismatic resident species such as ‘booming’ Bitterns, ‘squealing’ Water Rail and ‘fluty’ Robins as well as seasonal arrivals including ‘calling’ Cuckoos, ‘chattering’ Reed Warblers and ‘whistling’ Sedge Warblers.
We’ll see how many different birds we can hear singing and see if you can learn to tell a Robin’s Song from a Dunnocks or Blackcaps from a Blackbirds.
