Beschrijving
On a ridge above the Thames Marshes, Northward Hill nature reserve offers miles of trails, marshes and hayfields, bustling with birds. Northward Hill is a working farm, with grazing cows and sheep. In summer, there’s plenty of wildlife to enjoy in the day and evening, including butterflies and dragonflies, bats and moths. The scrubland is rich in Nachtegaal and Grasmus. You can see birds of prey like Bruine Kiekendief and Boomvalk that hunt dragonflies over the marsh. Kluut nest on reservoir islands. In winter, large numbers wildfowl gather on marshland floods and there is a huge roost of Roek and Kauw at dusk. 4,000 Roek look spectacular as they prepare to roost in wood. Wintering thrushes, finches and buntings gather in scrub. Koperwiek and Kramsvogel can be seen in the orchards below wood. You could also encounter a Velduil.
