Descrição

Woodberry Wetlands has 12 hectares of reed-fringed ponds, hedgerows, meadows and dykes in the middle of the densely built-up areas of Manor House, Stoke Newington and Woodberry Down. It is a big contrast between the surrounding tower blocks and the wild wetland habitat with old oak trees. Woodberry Wetlands supports lots of species throughout the year, from wintering populations of Zarro-comum, Pato-trombeteiro and Frisada, to rouxinol-dos-caniços, Felosa-dos-juncos and Escrevedeira-dos-caniços who have migrated from Africa for spring and summer. Also Mergulhão-pequeno, Alvéola-cinzenta, Pintassilgo, Rouxinol-bravo and Toutinegra-de-barrette-preto can be observed. More than 50 bird species breed in the area.
