Description
The Trent Port area is flat and overlooks a number of fields and the River Trent. The River Trent is a good location for Набережник палеарктичний during passage, Мала біла чапля and Рибалочка блакитний. The surrounding fields and hedgerows have good numbers of Кеклик червононогий, Вівсянка очеретяна and Вівсянка звичайна. 150 species have been recorded here including local scarcities such as Вівчарик жовтобровий, Костогриз, Мартин жовтоногий and Мухоловка строката whilst Баранець малий and Крех великий are annual visitors. In winter the River Trent is prone to flooding the fields, which provide some additional ornithological interest. Species recorded during floods includes Широконіска північна, Шилохвіст, Попелюх звичайний and Чернь чубата.
