Descrizione
Middleton Moor Lagoons is an isolated pocket of marsh, pools and reedbeds in the Derbyshire Peak District. With no similar habitat nearby, it is a draw to passage waders, gulls and waterfowl. It is probably the only site in the Peak District where Cannaiola regularly breed and one of very few sites locally for Forapaglie comune also. In spring and early autumn high artic waders regularly stop off to feed before continuing on their migration.
Cigno selvatico turn up annually as they migrate to and from their wintering grounds in the UK. Corriere piccolo breed and Chiurlo maggiore from the nearby moors often drop in to wash and roost, with relatively large flocks seen in early spring. Gabbiano reale is regular in late summer. The surrounding scrub is good for warblers, finches and chats. The site has a long bird list, with many rarities having been found over the years.
