Cley Next the Sea, England

The acknowledged birthplace of modern birding, Cley is in the heart of East Anglia, in the county of Norfolk. Thanks to its position on the coast, Cley beckons avian migrants to and from Scandinavia and the Continent. The village radiates a warmth of bygone days that's as appealing to Londoners as it is to birders from abroad. It's also the home of Bryan Bland, one of Great Britain's most knowledgeable and kindly birding experts. If you visit, see if he's available to lead an outing.
