Descripción

Since the former power station at Fawley was demolished, the area is going through big changes, housing is planned to be built, offset by improved habitats for birds. NOTE during the building and habitat improvements some paths may be temporarily closed or rerouted. The North side of Calshot Spit has extensive saltmarsh and mudflats, to the South of the Spit at low tide is mud mixed with stones. During Winter Barnacla Carinegra, Tarro Blanco, Silbón Europeo, Cerceta Común, Ánade rabudo norteño, Somormujo Lavanco, Zampullín Común, Serreta Mediana, Ostrero Euroasiático, Chorlitejo Grande, Chorlito Gris, Aguja Colinegra, Zarapito Real, Correlimos Común, Archibebe Común, Archibebe Claro and Andarríos Chico are common in various numbers. Landbirds include Ruiseñor Común (in small numbers) and good numbers of Tarabilla común, Cetia Ruiseñor, Escribano Palustre, Curruca Rabilarga, Bisbita Costero and Camachuelo Común. During Summer Carricerín Común, Carricero Común, Curruca Zarcerilla are present. For birds feeding on saltmarsh or mudflats a visit 2-3 hours before/after high tide is best (see link to tide table below). The high tide roost is marked on map, press STARS for more information.
