Description
Fairlop Waters is the largest country park in Redbridge and has a wide diversity of habitats like grassland, woodland, ponds, and lakes. The large boating lake has berneška velká, lyska černá and čejka chocholatá. A nesting habitat has been created on the main island for birds. Around the smaller fishing lake potápka roháč, labuť velká and sometimes pisík obecný can be observed.
The surrounding area is a mix of open scrub with some thick areas of shrubs and trees which attract pěnice hnědokřídlá, pěnice pokřovní and pěnice černohlavá. To south of the main complex and golf course is a small fenced off nature reserve. Birds that you can spot in the area all year round include žluna zelená, skřivan polní, volavka popelavá, sýček obecný, strnad rákosní and linduška luční among others. Some winter visitors are králíček obecný, polák velký, lžičák pestrý and polák chocholačka.
