Beschrijving
At the center of the site is a number of large lakes, once used as gravel pits. Just to the East is Swineham Point overlooking saltmarsh, reedbeds and Wareham Channel. The large area of water meadows are prone to flooding following long periods of rain, especially in Winter. The old gravel pits can hold Grauwe Gans, Grote Canadese Gans, Smient, Krakeend, Wintertaling, Slobeend, Kuifeend, Meerkoet, Dodaars, Fuut, Pijlstaart, Tafeleend, Topper, Roodhalsfuut, Kuifduiker and the occasional Roodkeelduiker. At low tide Wareham Channel holds feeding Bonte Strandloper, Wulp, Tureluur, Scholekster, Zilverplevier, Groenpootruiter, Kluut and Grutto many of which use the water meadows as a high tide roost. Check all Gull (Laridae) flocks carefully for more unusual species such as Geelpootmeeuw and Ringsnavelmeeuw. The Wareham Channel is known for both Visarend and Zeearend since the recent reintroductions in Poole Harbour and the Isle of Wight.
