Slimbridge

10 Dec - With lockdown looming, a visit to Slimbridge now that the Bewick's Swans have started to arrive, with at least 30 now in site. always special birds to see with their evocative calls and display, this rare species is declining and sadly is still shot on its migration. Also seen, Water Rails at the Willow hide, and waders on the Tack Piece including Curlew and Black-tailed Godwit. White-fronted Geese also now back on their traditional wintering grounds.
