Beskrivning
Kingsmill Lake is a Western offshoot of the Tamar Estuary, it has a good size saltmarsh that is used as a high tide roost. On it's Southern shore is The China Fleet Club Golf Course, that has a large free car park, the wooded footpath (can be muddy) is beside the golf teeing range, the lake/main estuary is overlooked by two bird hides. To gain access to these hides go to country club reception to get key codes (press STAR on map). Kingsmill Lake has had a number of Nearctic species seen but more usual are skärfläcka, rödbena, småsnäppa, spovsnäppa, skogssnäppa, svartsnäppa, rödspov among many other species.

JaExtra information
PLEASE NOTE, whilst entry to the 2 bird hides is FREE, the often muddy/wet footpath is unsuitable for wheelchairs and those with reduced mobility, also both hides have steps to gain access and fairly narrow doors. This out of the way and often unvisited site is a bit of a 'local gem' and is now mostly visited by local birders only.
ALSO NOTE, the bird hides have fixed seating, making it difficult to use a telescope with tripod, I advise bringing a hide clamp if possible.
