Opis

There are over 100 species of birds and other wildlife to be found at Belfast Window on Wildlife throughout the year, but don't worry if you're not an expert. Trained staff and volunteers are on hand to help you identify what you see. As you look out over the reserve towards the famous Cave Hill, you might spot the resident konik ponies which graze the reserve to help keep it in the best condition for wintering wildfowl and ground-nesting birds like czajka. Belfast Window on Wildlife has two hides which offer great views of nature. They are constructed from shipping containers to tie in with their industrial surroundings. The reserve also boasts a brzegówka bank and a jerzyk tower. It's hoped that they will attract these threatened species and provide cosy hideaways for them to nest in when they arrive on these shores in spring, having travelled thousands of miles from Africa.
