Opis

Lochwinnoch wetland is a mixture of broadleaved woodland, open water and marshy areas with some floating fen. In Spring perkoz dwuczuby perform their courtship rituals. rokitniczka and świerszczak can be heard singing from the wetter areas of the reserve. Also piecuszek, pierwiosnek, gajówka, kapturka, piegża and cierniówka in the woods. wodnik (zwyczajny) can be heard squealing from the reedbed areas.

In Autumn you can see large gatherings of dymówka, often roosting in the wetland vegetation, preparing for their long southward journeys. Flocks of droździk and kwiczoł arrive to strip the trees of their wild fruits. Look up and you might catch sight of mixed flocks of tits, mysikrólik and pełzacz leśny in the woodland.

In Winter a wide variety of ducks have arrive along with variable numbers of łabędź krzykliwy. At this time of year there are frequent sightings of błotniak zbożowy and other birds of prey. zimorodek and bielaczek are present, often affording excellent views.
