Join an expertly guided coach trip to explore Abberton Reservoir during winter, when thousands of wildfowl congregate on the open water and causeways. Look out for Goldeneye, Goosander, and with luck an early Smew, while patient observers may spot wintering grebes and divers.
This outing suits everyone from experienced birdwatchers to absolute beginners — newcomers are warmly welcomed. You can either walk the reserve with two expert volunteer guides or explore independently at your own pace.
