Description

Worth Marsh has beautiful open views toward Sandwich Bay and Deal. The area attracts both Nagy lilik and Apácalúd in the winter, and occasionally Tundrai vetési lúd. Wooded area has recently held Vadgerle in the spring, other regular visitors are Kis lile and Kabasólyom. In 2022 Worth Marshes was put firmly on the map when a Eleonóra-sólyom entertained 100s of birders from across England. Kék vércse has also popped up here a couple times in the last few years.
