Descrição
Rufford Abbey Country Park is the estate and grounds of a former 12 century Cistercian Monastery and country house. One of the main country parks that make up the broader Sherwood Forest area. Rufford is about 150 acres in size and has both mature woodland and younger plantations, grassland, a lake and a cultivated garden area. There is a diverse range of trees in the park, including Silver Birch, Willow, Alder, Beech, Yew, Sycamore and Lime. Wildflower meadows have been added.
Birds to be seen here are typical of East Midlands deciduous woods like Pica-pau-malhado-grande, Trepadeira-do-bosque, Trepadeira-azul, six species of tits and a varied assortment of finches — including Tentilhão-comum, Verdilhão-comum, Bico-grossudo and Pintassilgo. In the summer Toutinegra-de-barrette-preto, Felosa-comum and Felosa-musical are abundant, and often large flocks of Andorinho-dos-beirais and lesser numbers of Andorinha-das-chaminés around the Abbey buildings. In the winter small flocks of Lugre and pintarroxo-pequeno are to be seen in the wooded areas. Merganso-grande often occur on the lake in winter. Other waterfowl: Zarro-comum, Zarro-negrinha, Ganso-comum and Ganso do Canadá and Cisne-vulgar.
