Descrição
Buzzards Woodland (sometimes known as Buzzards or Buzzards Wood), was also once known as Thongsleigh Wood. It was donated to the National Trust (NT) by a Mr Matteson in memory of his wife, his wish was that the wood was to be called Buzzards Woodland after the birds they both enjoyed watching there.
The Little Dart River (not to be confused with the River Dart in South Devon) runs through the valley and eventually joins the River Exe further down stream, there are some steep sections of paths that can become extremely muddy (wear suitable footwear). This site is rarely visited by birdwatchers possibly because most birds are of the more common species, but does have both Otter (Lutra lutra) and Hazel Dormouse (Muscardinus avellanarius) present. The site has some spectacular views over typical Mid Devon 'rolling' farmland/woodland and you are unlikely to meet anyone else other than in Spring when the masses of Bluebells (Hyacinthoides non-scripta) are in flower. It is one of those 'pocket handkerchief' type of sites so very important in the modern world.
As well as Águia-d'asa-redonda you can expect to see Melro-d'água, Garça-real, Guarda-rios-comum and Felosa-comum.
