Beschrijving
This stretch of the river Truro is an appealing site for a quick visit being close to central Truro. Parking is easy and free along the road or at adjacent Boscowan Park. View from Sunny Corner or the wooded walk to Malpas. Best known for a varied selection of waders including wintering flocks of up to 100 Grutto and 400 Bonte Strandloper. These are joined by the most westerly wintering Kluut with up to 4 along with regular Groenpootruiter, Regenwulp, Oeverloper and the occasional Zwarte Ruiter.
In passage periods these are joined by small numbers of Kanoet, Rosse Grutto and Bontbekplevier. Wintering wildfowl includes good numbers of Bergeend, Smient and Wintertaling. Scarce species in the last few years have included Koereiger, Lepelaar, Zwarte Ibis, Kleine Rietgans, Rode Wouw and Visarend.
