Lincolnshire  >  United Kingdom

Parking at the lighthouse for a walk out to The Wash Viewpoint. A coastal path goes all the way to King's Lynn if you're keen!

Descripción

This peacefull walk along a little used route along the east bank of the River Nene where it enters the Wash is a good place to see Bisbita Pratense, Escribano Palustre and Tarabilla común alongside the path. Waders such as Agachadiza común and Archibebe Común are possible down in the drainage ditches, and raptors can be seen hunting over the adjacent fields and salt marsh e.g. Gavilán Común, Milano Real ,Busardo ratonero, Cernícalo vulgar and Aguilucho Lagunero Occidental.

The lighthouses flanking the River Nene are surely an interesting landmark in their own right, however the recently restored East Bank Lighthouse, previously owned by Sir Peter Scott, may add a little extra interest for birders. Sir Peter Scott is an important figure in British ornithology and wildlife conservation and he is the founder of the Wildfowl & Wetlands Trust.
