Description
Queen's Park is a public park in Crewe. There are several paths throughout the park, all well paved and suitable for wheelchair use. There are also lots of benches. The paths allow very close access to an artificial 4.5 acre lake (1) where you can see a large variety of waterfowl: Liska (sometimes with a colour ring), Barska kokica, Gluvara, Labud grbac, Siva čaplja, Veliki vranac, Srebrnasti galeb, Mrki galeb. During winter months large flocks of Obični galeb are gathering here. Veliki ronac, Mandarinka, Sivi galeb and others can often be seen.
The lawn is often busy with Kanadska guska. In summer they often form big kindergarden groups of many goslings. Belolika guska can sometimes be seen with the other geese.
A shallow valley, known as the ‘Coronation Valley’ (2), runs north/south through the north-west quarter of the Park, with its small man-made stream where Obični kos, Češljugar and other birds are often seen bathing. There are also several bird-feeders along the route that attract Velika senica, Plava senica, Brgljez, Jelova senica, Crvendać, Obični popić, Svraka and others.
The paths g othrough a landscape planted with a variety of trees and shrubs where one can find Sojka, Zelentarka, Golub dupljaš, Kratkokljuni puzić and even a Kukumavka. In winter the park is visited by Drozd borovnjak, Mali drozd and in some years by Batokljun.
