Slimbridge WWT

I took my first visit to WWT Slimbridge on Sunday, not my first WWT but my favourite so far over Barnes & Arundel.

Accompanied by Mr Darrell-Lambert we had timed our visit (not intentionally) with the Festival of Birds, so as we arrived for opening at 9.30am there were already quite a few cars and as we left there were three car parks in use however it never felt busy in the slightest.

We took a wander around the collections looking at some birds i will hopefully be twitching in the future but for now they all remained tickless.

My day list for wild birds was 64. Ravens, Little Stints, Water Rail, Peregrine, Bewicks, Dunlin plus a few un-tickable released Cranes

I really liked the place and would definitely go back.
