Description
Berrow is between Burnham-on-Sea (just to the South) and Brean (to the North). Sand dune systems stretch most of the way between the two. This Berrow section includes a Golf Course, a Local Nature Reserve (at the Northern end) and a very long sandy beach giving way to mudflats further from land. Between the Golf Course and beach the area is dominated by brackish marshland with extensive areas of Sea Buckthorn (Hippophae) used to stabilise the dune system. Because of erosion in some areas DO NOT stray from worn pathways, some of which may be temporarily closed, NOTE the RIGHTS OF WAY across the golf course are clearly signed, BEWARE OF GOLF BALLS, DO NOT impede golfers when you cross over. During Autumn/Winter a large number of Grive litorne and Grive mauvis feed on the Sea Buckthorn berries, Fauvette à tête noire overwinter sometimes in large numbers, both Faucon émerillon and occasionally Hibou des marais can be found in Winter months. Bécasseau variable, Courlis cendré, Grand Gravelot, Barge rousse, Courlis corlieu, Chevalier aboyeur and Bécasseau sanderling can be found in Winter or on Spring/Autumn Passage. Huîtrier pie are present year round, as well as Tadorne de Belon boosted by moulting birds in July. Traquet motteux can be found on the golf course mostly during Spring. Offshore Grand Labbe, Labbe parasite, Sterne pierregarin and Sterne arctique are often seen on passage. During Summer Fauvette babillarde, Fauvette grisette, Phragmite des joncs, Rousserolle effarvatte are present, whilst Panure à moustaches are still sporadically seen throughout the year.
