Cornwall - Seabirds, Migrants and More
Cornwall is the most south westerly part of the British mainland, characterised by farmland, sea cliffs, estuaries and an immense area of moorland called Bodmin Moor. A feature of Cornwall in the time that we visit, in the autumn, is a mass migration of waders and seabirds. There is an opportunity to see rarities that are rare or impossible to see in most other places.
