Hi All,

I have just moved back into suffolk from Herts, to the small village of Denston, which is situated between Haverhill and Bury St Edmunds.(lived in south-east suffolk previousto herts) And would like some info about some local sites in the area. And any Bird Forum Birders living in the area.
Any info would be gratefully received.

Depends how far you want to travel I suppose, but there's some great sites to the north of you in Cambridgeshire.

Some good sites in Essex not too far away either - I've found Peter and Margaret Clarke's book a great help:

Hi Mark,

You've probably already investigated this but the Suffolk Wildlife Trust site has loads of information and lists all their local reserves.

Hi Mark,

I don't often go birding in West Suffolk but main sites are Lackford, Micklemere, Livermere and West Stow Country Park.

This site is handy for latest sighting in the area - http://www.freewebs.com/lammergeierheights/julysightings.htm

I've just remembered the Lavenham Bird Club, which is nearby to you. Unfortunately I do not have any further details.
