Campers at a north Norfolk
caravan park were lucky enough to spot some unusual visitors.
Guests at the Old Brick Kilns
Caravan and Camping Park identified a nesting pair of spotted flycatchers in a
bird box on one of the site’s oak trees.
There are now thought to be fewer
than 500 pairs of the birds in Norfolk.
They reported their discovery of
the birds, which are red-listed as a bird of conservation concern, to the site
owners, who were advised to contact the British Trust for Ornithology (BTO).
The birds can be registered as
part of the organisation’s nest record and ringing scheme.
