Description: The Wexford Wildfowl Reserve, jointly owned by BirdWatch Ireland and NPWS, is situated in 936 hectares of reclaimed sloblands. It is one of Ireland's finest bird sites and is an internationally important wetland. Habitats include wet grassland and tillage, a brackish-water drainage channel and reedbeds. Pools have been created to attract passage waders and wildfowl

Internationally important numbers of Bewick's Swans and Pale-bellied Brent Geese occur. It attracts waders and wildfowl from Wexford Harbour, where an internationally important flock of Black-tailed Godwits and good numbers of Scoters winter. Slavonian Grebes are regular. Breeding birds include Pochard, Shoveler, Reed and Sedge Warbler, Cuckoo and Tree Sparrow.
