Descripción
Low Newton by the Sea has good mixed birding, with waders, sea-birds and wildfowl, all within an easy walk. Among the birds you can see on or from the beach are Éider común, Colimbo Chico, Chorlito Gris, Chorlito Dorado Europeo, Arao Común, Charrancito Común, Ostrero Euroasiático, Vuelvepiedras Común, and many more.
The shrubs and trees around the 'Tin church' (a small corrugated metal chapel 100 m north of the car park; see map) are very good for attracting coastal migrants; these have included Papamoscas Acollarado and Vireo Chiví, among many others.
The best birding is on the wader scrape between the village and the pool; this has attracted an excellent selection of waders, including rarities such as Correlimos Zancolín, Correlimos Pectoral, and Falaropo Picofino, as well as more regular species like Avoceta Común, Correlimos Común, Correlimos Menudo, Correlimos Zarapitín, Combatiente, Aguja Colinegra, and Zarapito Trinador. It also has regular Lavandera Boyera, here close to its northern limits in Britain.
On the way to the main pool, during autumn migration after east winds, check the trees and shrubs beside the path going past Risemoor Cottage; there is a good chance of species like Mosquitero Bilistado, Mosquitero de Pallas, Mosquitero Verdoso, and Papamoscas Papirrojo here.
The main pool is overlooked by two small hides; these are open at all hours. From them you can see a limited range of mostly common species, but can include Cerceta Carretona in spring, and Aguilucho Lagunero Occidental is sometimes present. Buscarla Pintoja breeds in the wet grass with scattered shrubs here too.
