Birds of Exmoor

16–20 June 2025 (Mon–Fri)

Lee Abbey lies in the spectacular and dramatic coastal landscape of Exmoor with its dramatic scenery and wonderful wildlife. Birds frequent a variety of habitats – sea cliffs, moorlands, meadows, woodlands and rivers are home to species such as Peregrine Falcons, Redstarts, Pied Flycatchers, Razorbills and Guillemots to name just a few. We will spend some time looking and listening out for these and more.
PLEASE NOTE: A good basic level of fitness is required as there will be some walking involved of 1-2 miles at a time, including some stiles, in order to reach the birds. Limited to 13 places.
