Woodland Bird Hide Hire
& Photography
About this session
The woodland birds’ hides are again long-established hides, providing stunning shots of many of the UK’s iconic woodland species, including great spotted woodpecker, nuthatch, as well as rare species such as marsh tit. Other high volume species include 5 tit species, finches (including goldfinch), wren, robin, thrushes. One of the great achievements of this set up is the Eurasian Jay which is repeatedly perched in beautiful settings, and is a regular with wildlife documentary film companies.
The Woodland Birds Hides are probably the most reliable and with the most varied species list. Of course, with so many birds present, there is always the chance of sparrowhawk! The hides can also be moved to get a low-level viewpoint on the pond to get intimate drinking, bathing, and reflection shots.

People SayMany thanks David for your excellent course, I feel I have learnt more from you on my last couple of courses than I have in all the years I have been taking photographs (over 40 years)! I was thrilled to be so near the woodland birds and to have the opportunity to sit back and observe and photograph them. Thank you for supporting me.. Many thanks, again. Eva March
