Bolderwood, Fritham and Beaulieu Road Station: 30th April 2014
We started early (for us) again this morning and were on our way by 8am. We drove up to Bolderwood and parked in the car park there before taking the path down to the cottage, crossing over the road and taking one of the paths that eventually comes out at the Canada Monument. From there we returned to the car park. The morning was sunny and the woods were completely empty. We had a couple of hours with the whole place to ourselves – or so it seemed. The woods were filled with the sound of Blackbirds, Robins, Chaffinches, Chiffchaffs and Blackcaps. Apart from these birds we also saw a Redstart and a Treecreeper; a Greater Spotted Woodpecker was drumming away in the background.
