Descripción
Elmley has ideal habitat for wildfowl and waders. In the winter there are thousands of Silbón Europeo with plenty of Cerceta Común, Ánade friso and a good sprinkling of Cuchara Común, Tarro Blanco, Ánade rabudo norteño, Ánade friso and also geese. Ánsar común predominate but there are also Ánsar careto and Barnacla Carinegra.
At the right time of year it is possible to see 20 species of waders. Combatiente, Chorlito Dorado Europeo and Archibebe Común are usually present. On passage, look out for Archibebe Oscuro, Archibebe Claro, Andarríos Bastardo, Andarríos Grande and many more.
Naturally this rich diversity of birds attracts predators. On a good day you may see Esmerejón, Halcón Peregrino, Aguilucho pálido, Búho Campestre or even Búho Chico. Aguilucho Lagunero Occidental are virtually guaranteed. Occasionally a Busardo Calzado appears but be careful before claiming one as there have been some very pale Busardo ratonero, too.
Passerines are more of a feature on migration - Tarabilla Norteña, Collalba Gris and others can be found in season. Keep your eyes and ears open and you may well find something unexpected.

Accesso
The reserve is accessed from the small road (Sheppey Way) that goes over the old road bridge onto the Isle of Sheppey. There is an RSPB sign pointing to the entrance. (With the logo removed!) It's a difficult place to reach by public transport - be prepared for some walking. Swale is the nearest railway station. Some of the best birding is actually along the entrance track. Scan the fence posts for raptors! If you walk you are likely to flush everything within quite some distance of the track - and are likely to upset the many photographers who like to use their cars as 'hides'.
