Chilean flamingos

ℹ️ Flamingos off show
Our flock of Chilean flamingos is currently being housed indoors. This is a temporary measure as a precaution to local avian influenza (bird flu).
We don't know how long this will last but we'll let you know as soon as they are safe to be back outdoors!
Thanks for your understanding.

Close alert

A 'wood'-erful new welcome for our visitors

Doesn’t the new dead-hedge fence winding down our entrance path look brilliant!?

It’s the work of our reserve warden John and his very dedicated volunteers, who have spent a great deal of time and effort on it.

As well as creating a rather magical-looking entrance way, it will provide essential habitat for nesting wrens, insects and small mammals.

Next up, there are plans to replace the plastic handrail with something more natural-looking, as well as planting ferns, fox gloves and deadwood silver birch; which will develop beautifully-coloured patches of fungi. A smashing job all round we reckon!
