13th November: Birds at the Lough

Now is a great time to visit the Lough on Holy Island, where you will find a bird hide overlooking this freshwater pool. Wintering ducks such as teal, mallard and goldeneye can be spotted, with smaller birds like reed bunting among the vegetation at the edges of the Lough. Natural Eng;and manage the Lough and recent;y cut back some of the vegetation to open up the pool.

Some birds you have a good chance of spotting:

Goldeneye

Teal

Male reed bunting
