Description
Fowlmere Nature Reserve is a wildlife oasis set within farmland. Home to breeding Горлиця звичайна, Пастушок and Сипуха and winter roosts of Вівсянка очеретяна. Сутора вусата, або синиця вусата and Бугай водяний are found occasionally in winter, and otters and water voles are regularly seen.

Other birds you can see here are Рибалочка блакитний, Шуліка рудий, Очеретянка лучна, Шпак звичайний, Пірникоза мала, Чайка чубата and Чирянка мала.
