Description
Budby is the largest area of historic heathland in the Midlands, blended with ancient woodland. Дрімлюга звичайний, Жайворонок лісовий and Щеврик лісовий make the most of the heath through summer. In winter, Шишкар ялиновий and flocks of Чиж лісовий flit through the remnant pines and birch trees. Other birds you can see here are Дятел малий, Вівсянка звичайна, Слуква лісова, Золотомушка жовточуба, Сіра сова, Сова болотяна, Канюк звичайний and Боривітер звичайний.
