Beschreibung
The Bittell Reservoirs are located in the north-east corner of Worcestershire and consist of Upper Bittell and the smaller Lower Bittell which are linked by a small wooded stream. Fishing occurs on both reservoirs with sailing only on Upper Bittell, leaving Lower Bittell relatively undisturbed. The area is attractive to wildfowl and gulls, especially during winter while the spring and autumn passage periods bring terns and a wide variety of waders.
In the winter months you can see Schellente and Gänsesäger. Scarcer visitors include Bergente, Zwergsäger and Mittelsäger and sometimes divers and the scarcer grebes. The spring and autumn migration can bring terns like Trauerseeschwalbe and Küstenseeschwalbe. Provided the water levels at Upper Bittell are favourable then a range of waders can occur like Alpenstrandläufer, Flußregenpfeifer and Grünschenkel. Also scarcer species like Sanderling, Knutt, Steinwälzer and Zwergstrandläufer and rarities can sometimes show up.
