Beschrijving
Stover Country Park is North West of Newton Abbot. The park (114 acres) , run and managed by Devon County Council, comprises of a lake (approx 10 acres) with marshland surrounded by woodland/grassland and heathland. It has a car park (fee payable), visitor center with public toilets, a bird hide and unusually an aerial walkway (see STAR on map) that takes you through the lower canopy. It became a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) in 1984 and became a Local Nature Reserve (LNR) in 2001,. The 18 mile long distance Templer Way footpath (Haytor to Shaldon) runs through the park, as does a cycle path (cyclists please keep to this path only). Dogs are allowed in the park BUT MUST BE KEPT ON LEADS AROUND THE LAKE AND WATERWAYS to stop disturbance of waterbirds. For an inland site it has a very large list of bird species, some seen in the past are Wespendief, Witgat, Parelduiker, Baardman, Zilverplevier, Groenpootruiter, Kleine Bonte Specht, Regenwulp and Nonnetje. It is probably best known for the regular sightings of Nachtzwaluw, Cetti's Zanger, Grote Zaagbek and Boompieper.
