Descripción
Blacktoft Sands is located on the south bank of the River Ouse, where the waterway widens to become the Humber Estuary. Reedbed covers much of the site and it is Englands largest intertidal reedbed, home to Aguilucho Lagunero Occidental, Bigotudo and Avetoro Común. Six shallow saline lagoons provide good birding throughout the year. An area of grazing marsh provides a home for wildfowl and waders through the autumn and spring and includes a large seasonally flooded area. A small area of mudflat, which is not accessible, provides a safe roosting area for large numbers of Chorlito Dorado Europeo and Avefría Europea. Scrub between the hides attracts a great variety of warblers and a thriving colony of Gorrión Molinero.
Blacktoft is a great place to see Aguilucho Lagunero Occidental with up to 40 roosting in the reedbed in the winter and breeding birds during the spring and summer. Winter roost often include Aguilucho pálido, Esmerejón and Lechuza Común. During the summer and autumn months many waders can be seen including Archibebe Oscuro, Aguja Colinegra and Combatiente. In spring up to eight species of warbler can be heard singing. Also booming Avetoro Común in the mornings and evenings. Avoceta Común arrive back in early March start nesting in April. Espátula Común have become a regular summer visitor.
