Descripción
Geltsdale is a remote and ruggedly beautiful nature reserve that encompasses two hill farms - Geltsdale and Tarnhouse. The blanket bogs, heath, upland farmland and woods of Geltsdale support a great diversity of wildlife. Many breeding birds are found here, including Gallo lira común, Chorlito Dorado Europeo, Zarapito Real, Mirlo Capiblanco, Esmerejón and Búho Campestre. And the reserve is one of only a handful of nesting sites of Aguilucho pálido in England. Tarnhouse Farm is one of two large farms on the reserve. Gallo lira común and the breeding waders - Avefría Europea, Archibebe Común and Agachadiza común - have all increased significantly, thanks to sensitive farming, particularly cattle grazing and wetland creation.
