Lower Test Marshes is one of the best places to see wintering vattenpiplärka (double figures some years) especially from the Test Way Crossing (BE WARNED - HIGH TIDES CAN COVER THIS CROSSING). Also during Winter bläsand, Kricka, Smådopping, kärrsnäppa, strandskata, tofsvipa, rödspov, skogssnäppa, rödbena, grönsiska and brunsiska, can be expected. Also the area is good for brun kärrhök, Fiskgjuse, mindre strandpipare, småspov, drillsnäppa, sävsångare, rörsångare, Pilgrimsfalk (check overhead pylons), vattenrall, kungsfiskare, gravand, Sävsparv, cettisångare, gulärla, rödstjärt, ringtrast and svartvit flugsnappare all depending on season.
The reserve has a mixture of both fresh and saltwater, with rough meadow pasture (Be Aware - livestock may be present), large reedbeds, saltmarsh, Willow (Salix) and Alder (Alnus) and some tree cover on it's Western side. The Test Way footpath/boardwalk crosses the reserve (WARNING - HIGH TIDES CAN COVER THIS CROSSING), there are 'Scrapes' with a hide and 'blinds' in the South.
