Descrição
A heavily wooded area just South of the village of Woodgreen and is on the Western edge of the New Forest. The area includes heathland, open grassland, scrubland and excellent tree cover. Before trees get into full leaf, visit during March to early April for the best chance to see Pica-pau-malhado-pequeno in treetops. At other times Bico-grossudo, Noitibó da Europa, Cotovia-pequena, Petinha-das-árvores and Felosa-do-mato can all be expected.
From the carpark at Castle Hill (press STAR on map), walk down to a bend in the River Avon. Garça-branca-grande, Guarda-rios-comum, Rouxinol-bravo, Felosa-malhada, Ógea and alvéola-amarela are often seen here, depending on season of course.
