Opis
Whitburn Coastal Park is a migration hotspot in Spring and even more in Autumn, when countless rarities have been seen here. It is also an excellent seawatching point. A great for bird watching, and often a chance to see kormoran czubaty, edredon, mewa trójpalczasta, fulmar, mewa srebrzysta and other seabirds. Marsden Rock has a kormoran colony that is easy to watch; alka also nest here, but mostly on the seaward side of the rock so not so easily seen. biegus morski, ostrygojad and kamusznik are regular in winter along with many other waders. Seawatching in autumn produces gęś krótkodzioba, bernikla obrożna, bernikla białolica, łabędź krzykliwy, and in winter, divers, grebes, markaczka, etc. śnieguła are regular in winter along the path and particularly at 'Jackies Beach'; also look for wintering poświerka on the wider grassy area toward the north end of the site. 'Jackies Beach' has also breeding sieweczka obrożna in summer. sokół wędrowny and drzemlik are also regular. The large coastal field at the south end of the site often holds a flock of roosting waders; mainly kulik wielki and siewka złota, but check for rarer species like siewka szara and biegus płowy, which have occurred here. Depending on season the coastal park will always offer a good day's birding. You can combine the birding with walking the coastal trail around the Souter Lighthouse, Whitburn Coastal Park and Lizard Point on the South Shields coast (for the 8 km route, see the map below).
