Travelled down to the New Forest by train quite a few times. I love to see the Silver-studded Blues and what was magical was walking from Beaulieu Road towards Lyndhurst Road and having my first sighting of a White Admiral.
On another ocassion (in 2004) I was able to watch a Little Egret feeding at a pool along the road through Beaulieu village |

The big areas of heath around Beaulieu Road Station are realy good for Silver Studdeds. Good around there for birds: Dartford Warblers, Hobbies & the other heathland birds. Great Grey Shrike & Hen Harriers are regulars in winter. Marsh Harriers, Short-eared owls & just about everything else at migration time. Little Egrets are now quite common on the south of the Forest. |

Another first sighting (or should I say hearing) for me right by Beaulieu Road Station was a Stonechat, amazing that a bird can make a sound like that (as the name suggests just like two stones being knocked together). my visits to Beaulieu Road now messed up by current train service .... just a couple of trains in each direction a day! | | | |
