Descripción
Lochwinnoch wetland is a mixture of broadleaved woodland, open water and marshy areas with some floating fen. In Spring Somormujo Lavanco perform their courtship rituals. Carricerín Común and Buscarla Pintoja can be heard singing from the wetter areas of the reserve. Also Mosquitero Musical, Mosquitero Común, Curruca Mosquitera, Curruca Capirotada, Curruca Zarcerilla and Curruca Zarcera in the woods. Rascón Europeo can be heard squealing from the reedbed areas.
In Autumn you can see large gatherings of Golondrina Común, often roosting in the wetland vegetation, preparing for their long southward journeys. Flocks of Zorzal Alirrojo and Zorzal Real arrive to strip the trees of their wild fruits. Look up and you might catch sight of mixed flocks of tits, Reyezuelo Sencillo and Agateador Euroasiático in the woodland.
In Winter a wide variety of ducks have arrive along with variable numbers of Cisne Cantor. At this time of year there are frequent sightings of Aguilucho pálido and other birds of prey. Martín Pescador Común and Serreta Chica are present, often affording excellent views.
