Lapwing, curlew, redshank, snipe and oystercatcher are all numerous here and golden plover flocks can often be seen. – Pendle Hill in the southeast is the place to see migrant dotterel in early May. The open stony ground by the trig point on the eastern summit is the best place to look for these delightful waders on their way to nest in the mountains of Scotland. – In the southwest, Barnacre Reservoir (which is not open to the public) is an important staging post for hundreds of migrant whimbrel.The public footpaths on the south side offer opportunities for seeing these birds as they fly in to roost in late April and early May evenings giving their loud piping calls.

Map Key

Birding locations to visit...– Roeburndale Woods in the north of Bowland offer good opportunities for seeing

oak woodland specialities such as redstart and pied flycatcher.

– The circular walk around Stocks Reservoir to the northeast offers a range of

woodland and upland birds.The reservoir itself attracts wildfowl and waders and

many passage migrants including the occasional osprey.

– Abbeystead in the west is one of the best areas for breeding waders on the upland

pastures. Lapwing, curlew, redshank, snipe and oystercatcher are all numerous here

and golden plover flocks can often be seen.

– Pendle Hill in the southeast is the place to see migrant dotterel in early May.

The open stony ground by the trig point on the eastern summit is the best place to

look for these delightful waders on their way to nest in the mountains of Scotland.

– In the southwest, Barnacre Reservoir (which is not open to the public) is an

important staging post for hundreds of migrant whimbrel.The public footpaths on

the south side offer opportunities for seeing these birds as they fly in to roost in late

April and early May evenings giving their loud piping calls.
