Holland Haven Birding

The inspiration for this site originates from a perceived desire beyond the small band of north east Essex birders who regularly visit Holland Haven to make available a reference point for all to promote, contribute to and support what is arguably one of Essex's premier bird watching locations.

Although not a location readily associated with ''mega alert'' messages received via the RBA pager and other bird information services, Holland Haven nonetheless is widely recognised as a site that regularly hosts, from a rarity perspective, species of national interest in addition to a wide variety of scarcer migrants and commoner residents.

WHO ARE WE? The Holland Haven Birding Group is principally Gary Gardiner (website originator and recorder), Pete Davis (website content and recorder), Karen Aldous (website maintainer and recorder) and John Sawyer (recorder) supported by a dozen or more local birders who regularly visit the site.
