Bowling Green on the confluence of the River Exe and the River Clyst is an ideal spot to watch birds up close, including spring and autumn migrating birds, and winter flocks of waders, ducks and geese feeding and resting. Two parts to the SSSI reserve - a large bird hide and a viewing platform at the point the river Clyst joins the river Exe.

Some of the birds you can see here are Aguja Colinegra, Aguja Colipinta, Barnacla Carinegra, Barnacla canadiense grande, Ánsar común, Ánade rabudo norteño, Silbón Europeo, Garza Real, Ánade azulón, Cuchara Común, Porrón Moñudo, Avoceta Común, Cormorán Grande, Archibebe Común, Archibebe Claro and Zarapito Real.
