Résumé :	Abberton Reservoir, in Essex, has been a key site in British ornithology for many decades owing to its internationally important non-breeding waterbird populations and a rich history of duck ringing. This paper describes the status of key wildfowl species for which Abberton Reservoir is designated a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI), Special Protection Area (SPA) and Ramsar Site. It also reviews the bird ringing activities at Abberton and summarises research from the site. Plans to ensure that long-term studies of wildfowl continue following reprofiling of the reservoir are outlined.
