Bird feeding station

Our bird feeding stations are hugely popular with birds and visitors alike. As you cross the footabridge from the car park towards the visitor centre you may already be enjoying views of birds attracted to our feeding stations. House and tree sparrows can often be seen and heard amongst the bramble bushes and shrubs.

An abundance of colourful garden birds such as goldfinches, blue tits, chaffinches and house sparrows are joined by a few unusual visitors like tree sparrows and reed buntings.

Views of the bird feeders can be gained from the entrance foyer and pond room on the ground floor. Or they can be viewed from above in the wigeon cafe, so you can enjoy watching the activity whilst tucking in to some lunch or a slice of cake!
