Vange Marsh is a mosaic of wetland habitats with a mix of fresh and saltwater lagoons. Amongst the more common species present on the day of our visit rarer species such as Avocet, Garganey and Spoonbill were observed. Two mounds on the left bank of the ditch are view points provided for bird watching by the RSPB. In the distance, on the wooded hill, the tower of the demolished Pitsea Church can be seen.
