Descripción
Chew Valley Lake is a a great place to spot wildfowl including migrating birds feeding in the reed beds around the lake. Breeding birds include Somormujo Lavanco and Zampullín Común, Ánade friso, Porrón Moñudo, Cuchara Común and Porrón Europeo. Alcotán Europeo often feed over the area in late summer. When the water level falls, the mud attracts waders such as Correlimos Común, Chorlitejo Grande and Andarríos Grande. Wintering wildfowl include important numbers of Cuchara Común, Ánade friso, Cerceta Común and Porrón Moñudo. Serreta Grande, Somormujo Lavanco and Cormorán Grande also occur in large amounts. The reedbeds are a vital autumn feeding station for Carricerín Común and Carricero Común prior to their migration. The winter gull roost is a spectacular sight with up to 50,000 or more, mostly of Gaviota Reidora, Gaviota Cana and Gaviota Cabecinegra. Chew Valley Lake also often attracts rare birds, including Águila Pescadora, the scarcer grebes, and an American wader or duck appears most years.

Accesso
General access available from the road side and picnic areas. Pavements run along the main road side, paths to picnic sites. There is a visitor centre and cafe at the picnic site near the dam. There are also two trails (indicated on the map). There are several bird hides at Chew Valley Lake, but you need a permit to visit these hides, except for the Bernard King Hide on the Bittern Nature Trail. The hides at Wick Green, Nunnery Point and Moreton Bank are available in the winter, but the Stratford hide offers the best all-year viewing. Permits obtainable from Bristol Water Recreation Department, Woodford Lodge (tel. 01275 332 339).
