There are waders along the shore and an array of passerines in the forest; Pied Flycatcher, Eurasian Siskin, Common Crossbill, Tree Pipit and Goldcrest. Common Kingfisher are possible in the woodland ponds. Until recently, Western Capercaillie bred here. They are now in serious decline and mostly found in the Cairngorm National Park.
