A Birdwatching Guide to The Lincolnshire Coast

This is a fascinating guide to birdwatching on the Lincolnshire Coast.The focus is not so much on the common garden species but on spring and autumn migrants, some of them rare, which briefly settle along this part of Britain's coastline.The bird observatory at Gibraltar Point is a particular hotspot, but scarce and unusual birds can and do turn up anywhere as evidenced by an American robin which once spent several weeks on a Grimsby industrial estate before coming to an unfortunate end when it was detected and attacked by a passing sparrowhawk.Lavishly illustrated and entertainingly written, this is an excellent insight into one the best places in Britain for discovering scarce birds
