Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust is located on the edge of the River Severn estuary
and provides an ideal location to watch winter birdlife. There are a huge
number of resident birds within this 'avian Serengeti' including Flamingos, Red-Breasted
Geese and Mandarin Ducks, as well as many British species. | |  | The British Isles was once a wet, marshy place. Despite
the loss of many natural wetlands, they are still amazing places to enjoy the
natural world.
| |  | - Our wetlands offer great opportunities for wildlife
watching. Why not take a few tips from the TV team?
