Opis
Over 40 years ago this area was little watched, today following sightings of rareties (see Extra Info below) the area is a 'draw' for local birdwatchers, wether seawatching or migrant landbirds.
The small village of Cawsand (Cow Cove in Cornish Language) is within Mount Edgcumbe Park (see separate entry) on the Rame Peninsula. The village has narrow streets with a car park (Fee Payable) on it's Western edge. During Summer a pedestrian ferry service (plymouthboattrips.co.uk) operates from Plymouth Barbican usually Easter to Last Sunday in October, the 30 minute crossing gives you a chance of seeing more marine species. NOTE: the landing at Cawsand beach involves embarking on a removable ramp and trips can be tide dependant.
The route from the car park is by following the Earl's Drive/South West Coast Path, through woodland to Penlee Point (seawatching), where Queen Adelaide's Grotto or Penlee Grotto can give shelter during inclement weather.
Also at Penlee Point is Penlee Battery Nature Reserve, a Cornwall Wildlife Trust reserve. The site was a former Palmerston Fort built in 1890 to defend the approaches to Plymouth Sound, the remains of gun implacements can still be seen on site. One of it's more unusual non avian visitors was the first British sighting of a Green Darner (Anax junius) a North American species of dragonfly (Odonata). The reserve comprises of woodland and coastal grassland where Bee Orchid (Ophrys apifera) can be found flowering in June-July.
