    [description] => 
The magical movements and acrobatics of a million roosting Starlings. Bitterns. Huge congregations of wintering wildfowl, Lapwings and Golden Plovers. Birds of prey; amongst them Short-eared and Barn Owls, Marsh and Hen Harriers, Merlins and Peregrines. These are just some of the possible highlights on offer at this special expanse of seasonally inundated lowlands that spans 650 square kilometres between the Quantock and Mendip Hills. This ancient habitat, that until recently had fallen victim to drainage and other modern farming demands, has now been restored to much of its former glory by the RSPB and other conservation bodies. It is a heartening modern-day conservation 'success story'! As this tour is designed for beginners, more time will be taken on instruction, explaining in more detail the identification features about the birds we encounter.

Enjoy the aerial artistry of a million-strong Starlings as they gather at dusk prior to roosting
The optional opportunity to return at dawn to watch the Starlings emerge from the roost
Bittern, Great White Egret, and Bearded Tit regularly seen
Special effort to find the Cranes which have been re-introduced to the area and now breed
Birds of prey including Marsh Harrier and Peregrine with large concentrations of wintering wildfowl & waders
A 3-star hotel, with award-winning restaurant, beside the cathedral in the historic market town of Wells
Led by expert naturalist guides

    [introduction] => A short birdwatching break, focusing in particular on the spectacular winter congregations of Starlings found on these ancient moors and wetlands. This tour has been designed specifically with Beginner Birdwatchers in mind.

The Somerset Levels, a magical expanse of seasonally inundated lowlands that spans 650 square kilometres between the Quantock and Mendip Hills, is a conservation ‘success story’! An ancient habitat that, until recently, had fallen victim to drainage and other modern farming demands, has now been restored to much of its former glory by the RSPB and other conservation bodies. Indeed the area supports such a rich variety of plant and birdlife that it is under consideration for status as a World Heritage Site.

Our visit is timed to coincide with the massive flocks of wildfowl that gather here during the winter, when internationally important numbers of Wigeon, Gadwall, Teal, Pintail and Shoveler are present. Another species found here in vast flocks is the Starling, made famous in recent years by BBC coverage. A dusk outing to watch hundreds of thousands of birds swirling over their roost sites makes for breathtaking viewing. The other star attraction of the area is the Bittern. Habitat creation has, in recent years, attracted several breeding pairs, and in winter these are joined by migrants, giving us a good chance of seeing one standing among the reeds or flying across the vast reedbeds.
There are small numbers of wintering raptors such as, Merlin, Peregrine, Marsh Harrier and Hen Harrier, and in recent winters it has been possible to watch Great White Egret alongside Little Egret with regularity. This superb bird bred in the UK for the first time in 2012 and chose the Somerset levels in which to do so, such is the extent and quality of the habitat here. Another bird which we will hope to encounter is the Common Crane which has been re-introduced here as part of the Great Crane Project. Although it can be unpredictable as to their whereabouts, many have been lucky.

Otters are another success story and do occur on the Somerset Levels in ever increasing numbers, though few are lucky enough to see them on such a short visit.

There is a very special quality to the landscape and wildlife of the Somerset Levels, and there are wonderful views across Glastonbury Tor, Deer Leap and Wookey. Indeed a visit here in winter can offer a host of rewards, so please do join us on this ever-popular Naturetrek short break

Summary

The Somerset Levels, a magical expanse of seasonally inundated lowlands that spans 650 square kilometres between the Quantock and Mendip Hills, is a conservation ‘success story’! An ancient habitat that, until recently, had fallen victim to drainage and other modern farming demands, has now been restored to much of its former glory by the RSPB and other conservation bodies. Indeed the area supports such a rich variety of plant and birdlife that it is under consideration for status as a World Heritage Site.

Our visit is timed to coincide with the massive flocks of wildfowl that gather here during the winter, when internationally important numbers of Wigeon, Gadwall, Teal, Pintail and Shoveler are present. Another species found here in vast flocks is the Starling, made famous in recent years by BBC coverage. A dusk outing to watch hundreds of thousands of birds swirling over their roost sites makes for breathtaking viewing. The other star attraction of the area is the Bittern. Habitat creation has, in recent years, attracted several breeding pairs, and in winter these are joined by migrants, giving us a good chance of seeing one standing among the reeds or flying across the vast reedbeds.There are small numbers of wintering raptors such as, Merlin, Peregrine, Marsh Harrier and Hen Harrier, and in recent winters it has been possible to watch Great White Egret alongside Little Egret with regularity. This superb bird bred in the UK for the first time in 2012 and chose the Somerset levels in which to do so, such is the extent and quality of the habitat here. Another bird which we will hope to encounter is the Common Crane which has been re-introduced here as part of the Great Crane Project. Although it can be unpredictable as to their whereabouts, many have been lucky.

Otters are another success story and do occur on the Somerset Levels in ever increasing numbers, though few are lucky enough to see them on such a short visit.

There is a very special quality to the landscape and wildlife of the Somerset Levels, and there are wonderful views across Glastonbury Tor, Deer Leap and Wookey. Indeed a visit here in winter can offer a host of rewards, so please do join us on this ever-popular Naturetrek short break
