Descrição
Starting and ending in the historic town of Wareham, this easy going circular birding walk, also known as The Two Rivers Walk along the bank River Frome overlooking reedbed, marshland, fresh water pools to Swineham Gravel Pit. Along this section in spring & summer you will often hear a burst of song from a Rouxinol-bravo , be seranaded by a rouxinol-dos-caniços / Felosa-dos-juncos or the repetative call of a Felosa-comum . In Autumn and winter this is replaced by the cry of a Maçarico-real , the peewit of Abibe-comum or the honks & cackle of Geese. In Spring and Autumn the floodfields attract a variety of waders such as Combatente , Maçarico-de-bico-direito , Pássaro-bique-bique , Narceja-comum , Borrelho-pequeno-de-coleira and rarer species like Pilrito-peitoral , Pilrito-pequeno or Pilrito de Temminck .
The Gravel Pit holds a variety of wildfowl, especially in winter with Pato-real , Zarro-negrinha , Galeirão-comum , Frisada , and Mergulhão-de-crista . The reedbed at the back of the pit is also a staging post for Abetouro-comum in March.
Swineham point overlooks a reedbed, saltmarsh and has extended views over the Wareham Channel & Arne Moor. From this viwpoint you have a great chance to see Tartaranhão-ruivo-dos-pauis , Ógea , falcão-peregrino , Esmerilhão , Águia-pesqueira , Tartaranhão-azulado and Águia-rabalva . But do listen out for the unmistakable ching ching call of Chapim-de-bigode in the reedbed.
The footpath then continues around the gravel pit into the Lower Piddle Valley, which are a series of flood fields. Please see Birdingplace https://www.birdingplaces.eu/en/birdingplaces/united-kingdom/lower-piddle-valley-flood-fields
Once you leave the floodfields the footpath takes you through a small area of woodland where you can see a wide variety of birds such as Toutinegra-de-barrette-preto , Estrelinha-de-cabeça-listada , Trepadeira-azul and Trepadeira-do-bosque .
Then it's just a gentle stroll back to the town of Wareham.
