Labrador Bay RSPB Reserve
Labrador Bay RSPB Reserve
This brand new nature reserve near Shaldon was purchased in November 2008 to help secure the future of the cirl bunting, a rare little bird whose population is almost entirely restricted to south Devon.
As well as being part of a working farm grazed by cattle in the summer and sheep in the winter and where crops are grown, the reserve is great for watching wildlife from cirl buntings and peregrines to butterflies, grasshoppers and crickets.
The reserve extends along 1.25 miles of spectacular south Devon coast. Habitats here include coastal cliff top, woodland, scrub, low-intensity arable and semi-improved grasslands.
