Throwback to around 40 years ago... Thanks to Kerry Mawdsley for sharing these pictures of herself, sister & friend. Kerry remembers coming here a lot with her nana! The stepping stones and flamingos are still here today! Have any stories or photos? Share them with us!

Middle of the week means it's time for #WrensDay, and these were captured @WWTMartinMere on the 06/02/25. The Wren is such a wonderful little bird. #birds #wildlifephotography #naturetherapy #birdsphotography @Natures_Voice #naturephotography #wildlife #photography #ukwildlife

Having not seen any Oystercatchers for some time, it was great to see a few of them show up in front of the Ron Barker Hide @WWTMartinMere on the 06/02/25. #birds #wildlifephotography #naturetherapy #birdphotography #ukwildlife #naturephotography #Oystercatchers #photography

Seeing as I haven't posted any Kingfisher captures for a couple of weeks, I think now is the time to rectify that. @WWTMartinMere on the 06/02/25 #birds #wildlifephotography #naturetherapy #birdphotography #ukwildlife #naturephotography #Kingfishers #photography

The oystercatchers beak isn't just striking orange... They probe into sand, mud, or soil to find worms. Their strong bill even prises or hammers open shellfish like mussels and cockles. And as we approach spring, we're seeing more arrive on our reserve!
