I am paying a visit to the county in mid-September for a family holiday but no doubt some birding will be included when time permits. I am hoping to visit Minsmere but Dunwich in particular to look for Dartfords, can anyone give me any tips on where and when is best to look?:hi:

I have had the birds at Dunwich, but I would suggest Westleton Heath as a better bet, just down the road from Minsmere. There are 2 Carparks, either will do, and just take your time scanning. Look for Stonechat, and a Dartford is usually not far away! Crossbill are a possibility here too.
Cheers,
Jim.
