Description
St James's Park is a 23 hectare park in central London. The park is bounded by Buckingham Palace to the west, the Mall to the north, Horse Guards to the east, and Birdcage Walk to the south. The park has a small lake with two islands, West Island and Duck Island, the latter named from the lake's collection of captive waterfowl. The majestic fountain protects Duck Island, which volavka popolavá and kormorán veľký use as refuge. Among the wild birds you can see are hus divá, labuť veľká, húska štíhla, kačica lyžičiarka, kačica chripľavka, chochlačka vrkočatá, hlaholka severská, potápnica bielolíca, potápka malá, potápka chochlatá, holub hrivnák, holub divý, sliepočka vodná, lyska čierna, močiarnica mekotavá, kalužiačik malý, čajka smejivá, kormorán veľký, volavka popolavá, jastrab krahulec, rybárik riečny, sokol myšiar (pustovka), sokol sťahovavý, alexander malý, sojka obyčajná, straka čiernozobá, sýkorka belasá, penica čiernohlavá, brhlík obyčajný, drozd trskota, drozd plavý, červienka obyčajná, trasochvost horský and Pied Wagtail.
A resident colony of captive pelikán ružový has been a feature of the park since a Russian ambassador donated them to Charles II in 1664.
