Descripción

New Lount NR is a former colliery site, the area is mainly woodland, forming a part of the National Forest. The muddy surrounds of the small pools can hold Agachadiza común in Winter. The feeders at the car park (only open 0900-1600hrs) have regular visits by Herrerillo Común, Carbonero Común, Trepador Azul, Pinzón Vulgar, Pico Picapinos and Arrendajo Euroasiático. In Spring/Summer Mosquitero Musical, Mosquitero Común, Curruca Capirotada and Curruca Mosquitera can be found nearby. The speciality of the reserve is Carbonero Palustre​​​​​​, being increasingly rare over most of it's range they are doing really well at this site, as a comparison Carbonero Montano can also be found here. Carbonero Garrapinos, Agateador Euroasiático, Verderón Común and Cárabo Común are also regularly seen.

During Winter the ever difficult to find Chocha Perdiz are around, usually more crepuscular in habit along woodland edges, an evening visit may be needed for this species though. Over open fields Busardo ratonero, Cernícalo vulgar and Milano Real, are possible, along woodland edges Gavilán Común can be seen hunting the many small birds. In Spring the open areas may produce Collalba Gris, Mirlo Capiblanco and even Zarapito Real may briefly drop in. In Winter the open areas usually have Zorzal Alirrojo and Zorzal Real and occasionally Chorlito Dorado Europeo and Avefría Europea have been seen.
