A few birders keep a list of species they've seen within 5km of home: I thought I'd have a count up and am pleasantly surprised to find the total is 138 species (All photographed!)
I reckon the reasons for this are:
1) The monthly church wildlife surveys - these can often turn up good birds
2) The location of Blofield Heath on the flyway between the Yare & Bure Valleys
3) The weekly trips around East Norfolk that I make with Brian & Norman
It's a shame that Potter Heigham is just outside the 5km circle: I could have added a further ten species!
