Description
Lying on a low ridge between Canterbury and the sea, East Blean Wood is one of the richest of all Kent's woodland habitats. In spring there are carpets of bluebell under coppice trees of sweet chestnut and wood anemone under a canopy of oaks and hornbeam. Many oak trees have nesting holes for strakapoud velký and strakapoud malý. The bushy re-growth of coppice trees provide perfect nesting habitat for many species of bird including slavík obecný and pěnice černohlavá which feed on the rich insect life. Other breeding birds include such typical deciduous woodland species as krahujec obecný, sluka lesní and puštík obecný. Passerines include brhlík lesní, linduška lesní, šoupálek dlouhoprstý and pěnice pokřovní.
