- Join me as I take a wildlife walk at RSPB Strumpshaw fen in Norfolk. I am mainly looking for common lizards but as I search for them I take a tour of the reserve and discover some of the other British wildlife and nature that has set up home there.
British wildlife and UK wildlife can be found all across Norfolk, especially at wildlife reserves such as the RSPB. The nature of these places includes amazing birds such as the Bearded tits, Great egrets, Kingfisher, Marsh harrier and Kestrel that were featured in this wildlife tour. Other wildlife can be found including several non native species of deer such as the Muntjac and the Chinese water deer that were featured in this video also. The UK has native reptiles and in this short wildlife documentary you will see one of the most numerous, the common or viviparous lizard.
If you have read all of this then thanks, and sorry for the mumbo-jumbo!
Great diversity! Sounds like a wonderful trip with the wildlife being out and about and the weather cooperation. Can't ask for better! God bless and safe travels on your next journey!
Even if this video is 2 years old it is still great. I discovered your channel maybe two months ago and yes I am enjoying your channel.
Interesting video, a good watch 👍
I’m from Nottingham and seen egrets up here North midlands a few years ago. interesting to see when you never seen them around before.
There cool little lizards 👍✌
What an excellent film, very enjoyable, I’ve only ever been there once, must get back there soo:-)
First, could you upload more content of deer that live in the uk
Ioan Mason I think he has a whole video on deers further back on his uploads.
Andre Smith I know
saw a merlin omce
Great video as always, Shame you had to go to work, unless your work is as a wildlife cameraman! Your presenting is ace too, informative and entertaining.
Totally agree with Tony. I really look forward to your videos Liam. The images are so clear. I think you must have quite a bit of skill to make these
This is the most recent of your videos that I could find, so I hope you still read your comments. I am so glad I found your channel. 2 years ago my husband and I had to give up our Norfolk hols because my husband struggles to drive that far now. Sculthorpe, Cley and Titchwell were 3 of our favourite places, so watching your visits was bitter sweet. Have you been to the more remote hides of Holme Dunes, accessed from Holme village, down the lane past the caravan park. We were lucky enough to be a few feet away from a Bittern there. Thank you so much Jill.
Hi Jill. Yes, thankfully I still read comments on older videos and I do try to respond to them all eventually. Although this is a very punctual response!
I haven't been to the hide you mention at Holme (or at least I don't think I have) but I am going to the North Coast in the next few weeks so will try to include that in my visit if I have the time. Thanks for commenting and thanks for watching my videos, I hope they can bring back good memories.
@@AShotOfWildlife thank you Liam for such a quick responce. I love the fact that if it lives and breaths you appreciate it. If you are in Coventry anytime(unlikely) visit our secret treasure- Longford Park. The Warwickshire Wildlife Trust got involved years ago now to make changes to the areas along the River Sowe that runs through the park. As a result we have a wetland walk which is great for birds and dragonflies. We have very vocal Green woodpeckers and flying peapods officially known as rose ringed parakeets. And then there is Brandon Marsh which is known for rareties dropping in. All the best Jill.
The monk jack is a nice animal. Never heard of
Great video.
Have a nice Sunday
You did all that and then you went to work! I admire your dedication Liam.
Thanks Jeff, it made my day easier if anything. Being out in nature always gives me a bit more energy for not being out in nature lol
Very beautiful you ha ve a lots of animals in Norfolk
Great video.
Here in Ireland we have common lizards but they go by many names like bog lizards and even bog dragons. They are most commonly found in bogs but they can also be found in sand dunes and mountainous areas
Have you got any about adders and grass snakes ?
We do, there’s grass snakes on one of my other videos but I haven’t filmed adders yet. There’s also a third species of snake called a smooth snake but I haven’t filmed them yet either.
Wow, you get so lucky with deer! Great video, they get better and better :-)
Great video mate. Good info on the Heron plumage maintenance.
As far as the deer sightings go, you reaped the benefit of an early start! Cracking view of the female kestrel in the golden light :-)
"Who am I to judge hairstyles?" Ha ha! Brilliant! Surprised there are as few as 630 breeding pairs of Beardies though. More often heard than seen though.
Keep up the good work mate. Hope you didn't doze off at work after the early morning wildlife watch! And yes, I did read to the bottom. No jumbo, but a bit of mumbo! 😆🤣😂
👍😎👍

Great informative video thanks

Nice video, Like n.17

Enjoyed that!
Man I just love your vids!
Thanks Ben. I look forward to being able to do one or more at Sculthorpe :) And to collaborating with you of course!
I’ve always wanted to do a pond dipping one, would there be anywhere suitable for that at Sculthorpe?
@@AShotOfWildlife We have a new pond dipping area currently in development! i'm also a riverfly recorder at the reserve and would love to do one with you on that!
Hi Liam, I took a weeks holiday last year in Sandringham area to look for wildlife to photograph. This prompted me to search for more areas in Norfolk to visit. As I have been a subscriber to your channel for a while, I came across this video earlier in the year. I liked the diverse habitats that Strumpshaw offers, so I took a weeks holiday & visited every day. I love the area so much I am returning in 4 weeks time. Thanks for your vlogs, it helps loads for people like me to find habitats & species for wildlife photography.
Good luck, I hope you enjoy your next stay. Funnily enough, my next video is back at strumpshaw so stay tuned for that this weekend! Cheers!
These deer were just not expecting to meet an early human riser Liam! Tou have great eyes!
We seem to have lost a lot of our kestrels! Maybe it's something to do with changing farming practice or more intensive farming. I used to see kestrels hovering maybe once a week now it's rare to see them. Great capture of the kingfisher! Sadly we don't have any bearded tits at all. You were very fortunate to see them!!! Wow you got your lizards too! And a marsh harrier! What a morning! Well worth getting up for! Brilliant job!
Thanks Liam for sharing another great and interesting video report from the UK wildlife world! I hope you're having a good week! // Bertil.
Great place and variety of wildlife well presented my friend
