An early morning, pre-eclipse walk from Hockham Picnic site to Hockham Fen and return through woodland trails produced at least 25 species.
My arrival at the fen was greeted with at least 19 Snipe rising up from the boogy parts of the fen close to where I watching from. I wonder what the true numbers of Snipe were in total around the fen...impressive count I suspect.
