Opis
Milton Creek Country Park is a green oasis, hidden from the world by a screen of industrial and residential development that hems it on three sides. The park is open at its northern end where Milton Creek flows out into the Swale. This corridor facilitates the migration of animal species in and out of the park as they move up and down the North Kent coast and provides additional roosting and feeding for the waders and wildfowl which over winter in the Swale and Medway estuary.
Despite the proximity of human disturbance the 52 hectares mosaic of meadow, scrub and aquatic habitats is home to many birds. Ranging from the more common species such as the rudzik to the scarcer kląskawka. The site is also visited by many migratory species including trzcinniczek (zwyczajny) and rokitniczka as well as the rare wierzbówka zwyczajna and słowik rdzawy. zimorodek can be seen occasionally along Brick Pits Drain and pustułka (zwyczajna) regularly hunt over the open grassland. Other birds of prey seen on the site include krogulec and the diminutive drzemlik. From time to time wading birds such as ostrygojad and krwawodziób visit the site from Milton Creek during periods of high tide.
