Dawlish Warren Bird List
This list includes all species reported from Dawlish
Warren NNR and surrounding recording area.
The NNR covers some 210 hectares [505 acres] however, only c.35% of this

The sandspit from Langstone Rock at its Western end to the end of Warren point
is only 2.25 kilometres long [1.4 miles] and roughly 0.4 kilometres wide [0.25
miles].
