10 best wildlife watching trips

For beachside birds of prey

 
St Ouen's Bay, Jersey

The growth of Jersey's marsh harrier population since the mid 1990s, when they were in serious decline, is a real success story. Today you can often see more than a dozen of these striking birds (marked out by their long tails and shallow ‘V' wing formation) airborne at once. The top location is the St Ouen's Bay area on the west coast.
