Beschreibung
Cathkin Marsh Wildlife Reserve is a beautiful area of fen and marshy grassland. It is home to many birds which can be viewed from a hide and a boardwalk. The hide overlooks a pond where Höckerschwan, Zwergtaucher, Wasserralle, Rohrammer, Bekassine and other birds can be seen. Zaunkönig and Wasserralle are often seen near the boardwalk. Sometimes in winter Sumpfohreule can be seen. Other species on the marsh include Wiesenpieper and Gimpel and a seasonal highlight, Feldschwirl, is unmistakeable singing in the reeds in spring.
