Willen Lake

Join our former county recorder for our first field trip of the new season. Willen Lake is one of the best known birding sites in the county. Whilst its days as a prime wader spot are long in the past, there's always something of interest to see at Willen. Mid-September is peak autumn passage time, so expect warblers in the hedges, the first returning winter wildfowl such as Wigeon, Shoveler, and Teal, and resident Kingfishers and Cetti's Warblers. There should also be waders such as Lapwing, Snipe, and Green Sandpiper, and possibly rarer species like Black-tailed Godwit or Wood Sandpiper.

Meet at 9.30am in the Willen Pavilion car park - MK15 9DL
