Idle Washlands

Nottinghamshire  >  United Kingdom

The River Idle Washlands are particularly good for waders during the spring and autumn passage, depending on the water levels.

Descripción

Waders like Chorlito Dorado Europeo, Avefría Europea and Agachadiza común occurred regularly in impressive gatherings, with Correlimos Común and Archibebe Común in smaller but significant numbers. At times a Aguilucho pálido, Esmerejón or Búho Campestre hunted the valley. When flooding persisted or reoccurred beyond the winter months the waters invariably many passage migrants of which ducks, gulls, waders, and hirundines were the most numerous. More unusual visitors to the valley include Somormujo Cuellirrojo, Águila Pescadora, Bisbita de Richard and Escribano Lapón. During the 20 years to 1980, 78 species are known to have bred and a further 6 may have done so. It is truly regrettable during the present decade; increased drainage efficiency has greatly diminished the ornithological significance of the area. Hopefully with Hanson’s Restoration plans for Slaynes lane and with the increased involvement of the Nottinghamshire Wildlife Trust, along with careful water level management, this part of the Valley can be restored to its former glory.
