Descripción
Weir Wood Reservoir of approximately 81 acres at the western end of the reservoir has been designated as a Local Nature Reserve. One hide is located adjacent to the car park on the southern shore. The eastern end of the reservoir, where the dam and works are located is home to a sailing and angling club. Most of the southern shore is not really accessible. Public footpaths follow the northern shore for much of its length. The western end contains a number of tern rafts and Charrán Común are regularly noted, along with Cormorán Grande, Garza Real and Garceta Común.
The woodlands are home to a large variety of woodland species such as Mosquitero Común, Curruca Capirotada, Pito Real and Chochín Común. The reedbeds at the extreme western end produce Carricero Común and Curruca Mosquitera. Often seen on the slopes of the dam at the eastern end are Andarríos Chico, Zarapito Trinador, Chorlitejo Chico and Archibebe Común, whilst the lake is frequented by Pato Mandarín and Ganso del Nilo. During the spring and early summer Alcotán Europeo and at least one Águila Pescadora are normally seen along with Golondrina Común, Vencejo Común and Avión Común. During May 2025 a pair of Cernícalo Patirrojo were seen in the woods to the north east end of the lake.
During winter months the Friends of Weir Wood place bird feeders in various positions around the hide.
