The only significant inland water in Bexhill town is at Egerton Park and the first few birds shown here can all be found there. However outside the town, but still within the boundaries of Bexhill, we are fortunate to have the reedbeds and flood meadows in the Combe Valley and marshland at Hooe Levels. Many more birds can be seen there, some all year round and others mainly in winter.
The following birds are mainly winter visitors, usually to the Combe Valley, although a few stay all year in small numbers and occasionally breed here.
And finally a bird that is rarely seen but there are several resident in the Combe Haven Valley and if you are lucky enough to see one they are unmistakeable, especially in flight as they are the only small bird with such bright irridescent blue wings.
