Descrizione
Middlebere Peninsula was only visited by local birdwatchers for many years and stood in the shadow of Arne RSPB reserve (see separate entry), but today with an increasing list of birds more birdwatchers are catching on to how good this site is. The peninsula extends Eastwards into Poole Harbour, with Middlebere Lake to the North and Wych Lake to the South (note Lake in this instance is an estuary). Many of the birds species found at Arne are also found at Middlebere, with the added bonus the Avocet hide has the sun behind you, depending on season Albanella reale, Falco di palude, Barbagianni, Smeriglio, Sparviere, Poiana, Gheppio, Falco pellegrino, Spatola, Avocetta, Beccaccia di mare, Pivieressa, Piovanello pancianera, Pittima reale, Pittima minore, Chiurlo maggiore, Pettegola, Beccaccino, Piovanello maggiore, Pantana, Oca colombaccio, Volpoca, Fischione, Alzavola, Mestolone, Smergo minore, Garzetta, Airone cenerino, Porciglione.
During Spring and especially Autumn migration look for Piovanello comune, Piro piro piccolo, Piro piro culbianco, Totano moro, Corriere piccolo, Gambecchio comune, Combattente and Chiurlo piccolo, some of which stay for long periods. Migrant landbirds include Culbianco, Cutrettola, Codirosso and Stiaccino. Since the reintroductions of Falco pescatore in Poole Harbour and Aquila di mare on the Isle of Wight, sightings of these species are becoming more frequent.
