Suffolk Birds, March 2025

Photographs from a visit to Suffolk with David Rosair, staying in Orford. We visited a number of sites, including:

Orford Marshes
Minsmere RSPB reserve
Blythburgh and the estuary
Dunwich Heath
Southwold

Highlights were the Dartford Warbler at Dunwich Heath, good views of Marsh Harriers at Minsmere, and the appearance of 5 Cranes over Minsmere. The Bitterns, however remained elusive!
