When to see - March

This is a busy time for wildlife. As the weather warms up and the days grow longer plants, begin to burst into life and animals start to think about finding a mate and establishing territories. Norfolk is a fantastic place to watch wildlife in action. Stop and stare for a while at a stubble field and you may just catch a glimpse of a hare, or take a stroll along the coast and see a variety of different birds en-route to their summer breeding grounds.

What to see in March

Listen to woodland birdsong by taking a stroll through the amazing wild wood of NWT Wayland Wood. Keep your eyes peeled for wheatears and other spring migrants at the Natural England reserve at Winterton. Walk down the boardwalk at NWT Ranworth Broad to see marsh marigolds decorating the alder carr and reedbed with its bright yellow flowers. For woodland flowers visit NWT Foxley Wood, NWT Wayland Wood, Sheringham Park  and NWT Lower Wood, Ashwellthorpe.
