The Hayle Estuary is one of Cornwall's most important sites for wading birds and wildfowl, particularly during autumn migration when rarities from North America occasionally appear after being blown across the Atlantic. The RSPB reserve's hides and viewing screens overlook the mudflats and pools where curlew, dunlin, and occasionally spoonbill can be observed at close range.
