Descripción
Sevenoaks Wildlife Reserve covers 73 hectares and comprises five lakes surrounded by woodland. There are a few ponds, seasonally flooded pools as well as grassland and small areas of reedbed. The deeper lakes attract all the common wildfowl which are especially abundant in the winter. Surface feeding duck such as Cerceta Común and Cuchara Común tend to frequent the shallower areas. Waders such as Andarríos Grande and Andarríos Chico, Archibebe Claro, Avefría Europea and Chorlitejo Chico can be seen around the muddy edges of the shallow water. The last two species nest on the reserve. Garza Real are resident and other birds like Martín Pescador Común, Lavandera Cascadeña can often be located. Birds such as Escribano Palustre and Carricero Común can easily be seen in the reedbed in the summertime. In the winter the alder trees attract flocks of Jilguero Lúgano and Pardillo Norteño. You can make a lovely walk around two larger lakes with many good spots for bird watching. There are several hides.
