Descripción
The northern footpath out towards the Mersey walks you mostly through agricultural land. Large numbers of Faisán Vulgar can sometimes be seen, as well as Perdiz Roja both presumably released gamebirds, though the native Perdiz Pardilla is also seen here. In winter, Pinzón Real is occasionally seen, as well as the more common finches and hedgerow birds.
The path alongside the Mersey adds good views of estuary, mudflat and some reedbeds. Waders of various sorts are seen, particularly in winter, when very large counts can occur particularly of Correlimos Común (sometimes 10,000+) and Aguja Colinegra (often 1,000+) and Chorlitejo Grande (often hundreds), as well as Ánsar piquicorto. Herons and egrets are likely, occasionally Garcilla Bueyera. A telescope can be useful to pick out birds on the mud in the centre of the channel or far shore.
The western path out to the shore goes through woodland where Arrendajo Euroasiático, Paloma Zurita and Zorzal Alirrojo might be found.
