Descripción
Stonehouse Creek and Victoria Park were both tidal at one time. Victoria Park being filled in and turned into a park in the late 19th century, whilst Stonehouse Creek was filled in and turned into sports pitches in 1972/73, in fact the land is so low lying that both areas still occasionally flood following periods of persistent heavy rain.
(*1), press STAR on map. Stonehouse Creek, The rugby pitches here can be busy on Saturdays especially in the afternoons, a visit earlier in the day or on a weekday may be best. This large open area does occasionally have feeding Ostrero Euroasiático, especially at high tide elsewhere. During intense freezing conditions North of the City, Avefría Europea can be found here also. Following long periods of heavy rain shallow pools form attracting Gulls (Laridae), mostly Gaviota Reidora but always worth checking for the now increasingly more common Gaviota Cabecinegra 'loafing and bathing' in the fresh water pools.
(*2), Victoria Park, the Football pitches here are extremely busy at weekends (both Saturdays and Sundays), a visit during a weekday may be best. The centre of the park is more open but the edges have a good mixture of large mature trees, the park has good wide paths that are sometimes prone to flooding in places. During Winter Zorzal Alirrojo, Zorzal Real and Bisbita Pratense are regularly seen. The gardens along the Southern edge can have Curruca Capirotada, Mosquitero Común and the occasional Mosquitero Musical in Summer, on Ivy (Ilex) covered walls look and listen for Reyezuelo Sencillo.
(*3). On this (private) early learning site, once the site of a council bowling green, are more mature trees and rough areas of scrubland, listen out for the calls of Cotorra de Kramer often seen here from their main site of nearby Central Park (see separate entry - Central Park Plymouth). Check the old railway viaduct for Cernícalo vulgar often seen resting.
