Description
St Gothian Sands was declared a Local Nature Reserve in 2005. Prior to this it was a derelict sand works located to the west of Godrevy Head. In 2005 the main pools and conservation areas were created and have now become a haven for resident and migrating birds. The headlands at Godrevy are excellent for watching visible migration with pipits, finches, wheatears and swallows passing through in good numbers on the right day, Among the regular birds you can see are Huîtrier pie, Courlis cendré, Tournepierre à collier, Goéland marin, Grèbe castagneux, Fuligule morillon and Tadorne de Belon. Among the rarities that have been seen are Goéland à ailes blanches, Goéland bourgmestre, Merle d'Amérique and Pie-grièche à tête rousse.
