Beskrivning
The Bittell Reservoirs are located in the north-east corner of Worcestershire and consist of Upper Bittell and the smaller Lower Bittell which are linked by a small wooded stream. Fishing occurs on both reservoirs with sailing only on Upper Bittell, leaving Lower Bittell relatively undisturbed. The area is attractive to wildfowl and gulls, especially during winter while the spring and autumn passage periods bring terns and a wide variety of waders.
In the winter months you can see knipa and storskrake. Scarcer visitors include bergand, salskrake and småskrake and sometimes divers and the scarcer grebes. The spring and autumn migration can bring terns like svarttärna and silvertärna. Provided the water levels at Upper Bittell are favourable then a range of waders can occur like kärrsnäppa, mindre strandpipare and gluttsnäppa. Also scarcer species like sandlöpare, kustsnäppa, roskarl and småsnäppa and rarities can sometimes show up.
