Breeding birds include good numbers of nationally declining waders such as lapwing and redshank. Avocet also breed on the new pools. Yellow wagtail, skylark, sedge warbler, reed warbler, lesser whitethroat, grasshopper warbler and reed bunting all occur. A colony of little egrets and grey herons breeds in a nearby wood. Western cattle egret bred after an influx in 2017, and nesting attempts by great egret and Eurasian spoonbill were observed in subsequent years. Ten pairs of Mediterranean gulls nested on the reserve in summer 2019.
