Opis

Thorpe Park sits just North of the M3 Motorway and East of the M25 Motorway. The Thorpe Park Area is dominated by the very large Thorpe Park Resort, the area is a complex group of former gravel pits, now landscaped with some lakes used for various watersports.

The area includes Manor Lake (*1) (press STAR on map), where no watersports take place, because of this in Winter the Lake is usually packed with waterfowl. głowienka, czernica, the occasional gągoł, nurogęś, hełmiatka. świstun, Płaskonos and krakwa all in good numbers.

(*2), the long St Anne's Lake connected to Abbey Lake, can have the same species as Manor Lake, but due to watersport activities disturbed birds move off to quieter spots.

(*3), the Thorpe Park complex is a good place to see bielaczek in the London area, once seen throughout the area they now favour the shallower Abbey Mead Pits on the other side of the A320.

(*4), for those with more time, check out Longside Lake on the West side of the M25 Motorway, unfortunately this lake is used for watersports including open water swimming.

Some other birds such as zausznik, perkoz rdzawoszyi and perkoz rogaty have all been seen in the recent past. Both podgorzałka and ogorzałka have also recently been seen.

Waders such as kszyk, bekasik, sieweczka obrożna, sieweczka rzeczna, samotnik, ostrygojad and czajka are regular depending on season. Check out the marshland on the West side of Manor Lake (press STAR on map) rybitwa rzeczna nest on rafts on Manor Lake during the Summer, wierzbówka zwyczajna are resident along with trzcinniczek (zwyczajny) in the Summer months.

An early morning visit is advisable at weekends as watersports have a huge impact on birds, there is less disturbance during weekdays.
