  • Marsh Harrier
    The largest of the harriers, it can be recognised by its long tail and light flight with wings held in a shallow 'V'. It is distinguishable from other harriers by its larger size, heavier build, broader wings and absence of white on the rump. Females are larger than males and have obvious creamy heads. Its future in the UK is now more secure than at any time during the last century but historical declines and subsequent recovery means it is an Amber List species.

  • Grey Plover
    Adults of Gray Plover have black neck and face with a thick white border, black breast and a white rump.  They also have black bill and legs.  In winter they are fairly gray above with a gray-speckled breast and white belly. <br/><br/> This bird is nearly worldwide in its distribution, particularly when not breeding.  However, they only overwinter here in the UK, as their breeding range is in N. Russia, N. North America and arctic islands.  However non-breeding birds will stay in their wintering grounds until their 2nd year.

    A large, long-tailed gamebird. Males have rich chestnut, golden-brown and black markings on body and tail, with a dark green head and red face wattling. Females are mottled with paler brown and black. They were introduced to the UK long ago and more recent introductions have brought in a variety of races and breeds for sport shooting.  This bird can be seen across most of the UK, apart from the far north and west of Scotland. Usually seen in the open countryside near woodland edges, copses and hedgerows.
