  • Chaffinch
    The Chaffinch is a widespread finch across Europe, Asia, and northwestern Africa, being the most populous finch in western Europe. It can be said it is one of europe's prettiest finches, with a loud and varied song to match. The Chaffinch is not migratory here in Britain, and in the winter it will form loose flocks, sometimes quite large. They are also known to mix with the visiting Bramblings during the winter as well.

Adults have light grey backs, white under parts, and black wing tips with white 'mirrors'. Their legs are pink, with webbed feet and they have heavy, slightly hooked bills marked with a red spot. Young birds are mottled brown. They have suffered moderate declines over the past 25 years and over half of their UK breeding population is confined to fewer than ten sites.

  • Great Cormorant
    A large and conspicuous waterbird, the cormorant has an almost primitive appearance with its long neck making it appear almost reptilian. It is often seen standing with its wings held out to dry.

The UK holds internationally important wintering numbers.

  • Northern Shoveler
    The Northern Shoveler is a common and widespread duck, found across the northern regions of North America, Europe and Asia. Its an unmistakable duck due to its spatulate bill, unable to be mistaken for any other similar duck in its range.</br></br>In the UK we are home to up to 20% of the entire Northwestern European population. Its found year round, but found more often in the winter months. The breeding population moves south in the winter where their numbers here are replaced by an influx of continental birds from the north. This is not a gregarious duck, only forming small flocks, even outside of the breeding season.
