Welney Wetland Centre is the place to watch one of nature’s most magical sights – the winter gathering of up to 9,000 swans and ducks arriving from the Arctic. But the centre isn’t just a winter destination, with vast flocks of wetlands wildlife to spot throughout the year - including summer waders, dragonflies and avocets – and stunning walks along the Ouse Washes.
