  • Eurasian Coots
    All-black and larger than its cousin, the moorhen, it has a distinctive white beak and 'shield' above the beak which earns it the title 'bald'. Its feet have distinctive lobed flaps of skin on the toes, which act instead of webs when swimming. It patters noisily over the water before taking off and can be very aggressive towards others.

  • Black-tailed Godwit
    Adults of black-tailed godwits have a red neck, breast and belly during the breeding season, which turns to an off white in the winter seasons. The back remains a mottled grey all year round. Bills are very long with a very slight upward curve, pink at the base and black at the tip. <br/><br/> Interesting fact about this bird in the UK is that even though you can see these birds year-round here, they’re not the same birds. In fact our resident breeders leave our shores in the fall and we get an influx of the larger Icelandic black-tailed godwits visiting here. <br/><br/>You can see these birds both on fresh and salt water, whereas the similar bar-tailed godwits are only found on the coasts.

  • Gannet
    Adults are large and bright white with black wingtips. They are distinctively shaped with a long neck and long pointed beak, long pointed tail, and long pointed wings. At sea they flap and then glide low over the water, often travelling in small groups. They feed by flying high and circling before plunging into the sea. It breeds in significant numbers at only a few localities and so is an Amber List species. Biggest mainland breeding colony at RSPB's Bempton Cliffs. Two mainland colonies - at Bempton and Troup Head, Scotland. Big island colonies on St Kilda, the Northern Isles and Bass Rock in Scotland and Grassholm in Wales.

  • Great-crested Grebe
    The Great-Crested Grebe is an excellent swimmer and diver, the young able to do so almost immediately after hatching. The adults are unmistakable in summer with bright rusty colors on their head and neck. The hatchlings are striped black and white, much like a zebra. It is the largest grebe in europe.The species was almost hunted to extinction in the 19th century, but thanks to the RSPB, it is now a common sight.
