Chilean flamingos off show

Our Chilean flamingo flock is currently being housed indoors. This is a temporary measure as a precaution to avian influenza (bird flu). We will let you know as soon as they are safe to be outdoors. Thank you for your understanding.

Close alert

Rare visitor to river corridor

A shag has been spotted on the River Wear by our reserve manager John on his morning rounds.

That's his first sighting in more than five years of working here, so he's excited to say the least!

The coastal bird is most likely to have come inland because of today's bad weather.

Happy sheltering :-)
