Hodbarrow Nature Reserve : ウィキペディア英語版 | Hodbarrow Nature Reserve Hodbarrow Nature Reserve is on the edge of the Lake District National Park in Cumbria, England. The reserve occupies an area where iron ore was mined until the 1960s. It is on the Duddon Estuary near the town of Millom. The RSPB reserve consists mainly of Hodbarrow lagoon, a flooded part of the former mine, which is described as a "coastal lagoon".〔(Hodbarrow ). RSPB〕 The mining caused subsidence and since the closure of the mine the site is no longer dewatered. However, it continues to be protected from the sea by a seawall completed in 1905.〔(Hodbarrow Sea Defences )〕 There is a bird hide on the seawall which gives views of the lagoon. ==Wildlife== The lagoon is part of the Duddon Estuary Site of Special Scientific Interest.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.sssi.naturalengland.org.uk/citation/citation_photo/1000104.pdf )〕 Hodbarrow is renowned for large numbers of wildfowl during the winter, especially teal, widgeon, coot, mallard, tufted duck, common pochard, goldeneye, red-breasted merganser, and occasionally long-tailed duck, eider, goosander, pintail and shoveller.
