WWT Slimbridge

Finally managed a trip to WWT Slimbridge in Gloucestershire on Sunday! Absolutely vile weather all day- blustery and very, very cold & damp- but absolutely worth it. Would fully recommend it to any of you wanting a good day out, it is absolutely fabulous for nature lovers. The amount of wildlife is just staggering, I came across several wildfowl species I had never come across before. Really enjoyed the surrounding countryside too, the views from the hides were fantastic & there were several noisy rookeries nearby which I loved being obsessed with corvids!! I'll definitely be posting some pictures later on, (not quite sure which forum would be best to post these in??) Just wondered if anyone else had been here & what were your thoughts on it? I don't live locally unfortunately so will probably be a one off for me, but I would love to go back at some point, perhaps during spring/summer when the wildlife on show would undoubtedly have changed, as would the scenery. But I fully recommend it as a nature lovers' day out, absolutely fab.
