Beschreibung
There are numerous car parks around Blagdon Reservoir, and two bird hides. An 8 km circular walk around the lake is possible. See map on the link below.
The chief interest is the easternmost hide looking over the autumn mudflats. Expect Alpenstrandläufer, Uferschnepfe, Sanderling, Rotschenkel, Grünschenkel and plovers. The swampy wooded area by the hide may have Waldschnepfe and Bekassine. Wintering ducks may include Schellente, Pfeifente, Löffelente, perhaps Eisente or Bindentaucher. In stormy winter weather, proximity to the Bristol channel makes this a refuge for windblown seabirds. 177 species have been seen, including rarities such as Odinshühnchen, Bairdstrandläufer, Temminckstrandläufer and Trauerseeschwalbe. Note: A permit is required (see info below).
