The hare lives here and the stoat inhabits
the low walls and heaps of fallen rocks. Butterflies brighten the hay
fields. Numerous common passerines lives in the deep valley woodlands of
hedges and their undergrowths, ruins, old walls, meadows and pastures.
The house martin lives in the eaves, the swallow prefers cowshed beams and
the redstart a hole in the wall. The owls hunt here.
The little owl, only
25cm and which has no fear of man, and the barn owl feed on voles. The
dipper searches in the water for aquatic insect larvae, while the grey and
yellow wagtails feed on midges.
