Description

A reserve that is a bit of a secret local spot, infrequently visited by birdwatchers today. Kinterbury Creek Nature Reserve has an area of Phragmites reedbed, a bit of a rarity in Western Plymouth. Small numbers of Rørsanger can be heard uttering their grating calls in early Summer each year.
