Description

Knypersley Reservoir is a nice place for birding. The woodland has a rich birdlife, and the birds are habituated to human presence. The open water also has some waterfowl. Overall, this is an attractive area for a walk and the birding is close by the paths. Nice birds you can see here are Mésange nonnette, Grimpereau des bois, Sittelle torchepot and Harle bièvre.
