Description
Tucked away in Leicestershire, the Reedbed Nature Reserve at Watermead Country Park consists of four hides, one of which looks over the fabulous Wanlip Meadows. In winter, Mokož and with a little bit of luck bobnarica can be seen stalking in the extensive reedbeds there. brezovcek, various Tits and čižek will visit the feeders from the Kingfisher Hide. vodomec can also be viewed from most of the hides.
Spring announces the arrival of waders and the marshier area of the River Soar, viewed from the Plover Hide is great for kozica and rdečenogi martinec. Other waders such as spremenljivi prodnik, veliki škurh and školjkarica can also be seen around the reserve. navadna čigra, breguljka, mestna lastovka, kmečka lastovka and hudournik all fly around the reserve in spring and summer, with the breguljka nesting in the bank for them. Autumn is quite an interesting month for migration for more waders such as zelenonogi martinec, pikasti martinec, mali martinec, sabljarka and mali deževnik can be viewed from around the reserve.
