Le Grande Pré
This piece of land is mostly owned by the States of Guernsey and leased to La Société. Le Grande Pré provides an important habitat for breeding Reed Warblers and Cetti’s Warblers. Reed Buntings and Marsh Harriers have been sporadic breeders.
During spring and autumn the reedbed supports large numbers of migrating Reed and Sedge Warblers, and Swallows and Sand Martins use the area as a roost. In winter, Bitterns have been occasionally seen.
There are great views across to our sister island, Herm, from this wonderful nature reserve.
