Descripción

Charmouth is set amongst some of the highest sea cliffs on the South coast of England, some of which are over 600 foot high, the area is renowned for fossils and is part of the Jurassic Coast. The River Char runs through the village and has Martín Pescador Común, Mirlo-acuático Europeo and Lavandera Cascadeña. The shingle area at the mouth of the River had a Correlimos de Temminck in the past. The small area of reedbeds (Press STAR on map) between the seafront car parks, hold Escribano Palustre, Carricero Común and can have Rascón Europeo, Agachadiza común and the occasional Agachadiza Chica. The car parks in this area can have a large pre-roost gathering of Lavandera pía in late afternoons during Winter months, whilst Halcón Peregrino, Cuervo Grande, Tarabilla común and Bisbita Costero are resident. On beaches waders are only to be found in smaller numbers Chorlitejo Grande, Ostrero Euroasiático and Vuelvepiedras Común being the most common.

WARNING. Due to erosion, cliff falls can happen at any time, walking near cliff edges and at the base of cliffs can be TREACHEROUS.
