Whooper swans on Lady Fen
Whooper swans on Lady Fen

Some of the whooper swans have started to roost on the pools of Lady Fen close to the visitor centre.  These can be viewed between dawn and 9am from the car park, although do be careful not to disturb them.  They then fly out the the fields beyond, sometimes coming back during the day for a wash or drink.  Dusk signals bedtime, when they all head back so you can hear them after dark as you arrive for an evening feed and when you return to your car!
