Come to Portishead!
Portishead is situated in sommerset and is home to many rare and common animals, birds in their hundreds. It is best in the summer but many animals can be seen in the winter too (rare birds become very very scarce). Animals range from common birds like the Pigeon, Crow, Raven, Magpie to kestrels, Herons and cormrants. Whilst out on a walk, spotting rare animals, i came across a stream to the east of Portishead marina. I sat and watched for nearly five hours and it finaly paid off, for about two seconds, a majestical bird caught my eye, the Kingfisher. The Kingfisher, brightly coloured in blue and orange, hot passed me and then darted away. For just two seconds, in a five hour waiting game, it really made my day. Then to top it off, the same day i saw a weasel which is also extreamly rare. Also, if you are just in love with nature and animals like i am, hundreds of rabbits graze. With woods and grass planes all around, i can also recommend taking a small tent with you and supplies for a night in the outdoors. This gives you the chance to travel further on foot.
All the animals i have mentioned i have seen, i am sure there is more to see and find. Keep looking people! And don't forget, keep the birds happy this winter, feed them and give them water.
