YWT Fen Bog - 1 January 2013

Nipped in to Fen Bog on the way up to Little Beck Wood. The site is easily accessed on the Pickering to Whitby Road, just on the left before the bends shortly after Fylingdales. There is parking for several cars. The nature reserve is a short walk down a track into the valley, towards the steam railway.

I plan to come back here in the summer to look for Small Pearl-bordered Fritillaries and Large Heaths but as the sun was shining, I thought it was worth a quick photo. The moorland colours were lovely in the winter sunshine, but not a lot about, apart from a few hardy Meadow Pipits.
