Sunset stroll at RSPB Minsmere

Experience Minsmere at the best time of day as the sun sets above the autumn reedbed. With luck, our thousands of starlings will gather in their amazing swirling flocks, or a dozen or so marsh harriers will settle to roost in the reeds. As darkness gathers, we’ll use a bat detector to search for bats and enjoy the eerie sounds of the night. Please bring a torch as it will be dark when these walks finish.
