Hello and happy Bank Holiday Monday! For today's #MondayMindfulMinute, we enjoyed a little while on Wader Lake watching an avocet tend to its nest. Lots of background noise on this one if you want an immersive experience! 📽️ Volunteer Ian Henderson
Tern are returning! Yes we've had some great sightings of common tern around Wader Lake over the past week. While they're not quite beginning to settle yet, it's well worth keeping an eye (and an ear!) out for these aerobatic birds around the lake and nearby river!
✨ Nature events this bank holiday weekend ✨ - Guide in the hide - Saturday 4 May | 10am - 3pm - Optics demo event - Sunday 5 May | 10am - 3pm - Wildflower Walk - Monday 6 May | 11am - 12noon All activities are included with admission and no need to book!
Our reserve team will be working around the saline lagoon today (Thursday 2 May), so there may be some disturbance to the birds in the area. Thanks for your patience while we complete these essential works.
Wildflowers are starting to show nicely around our reserve, with a variety of shapes, sizes & colours to see. Why not enjoy a walk around the east of our wetlands and try your hand at spotting and IDing these ten wildflowers 👉 bit.ly/wa-ten-spring-… #wildflowers #Springwatch
Hello and welcome to this week's #MondayMindfulMinute! Today we spent a moment with a grey heron who has been visiting the Stream Channel (and causing quite a stir we might add...) for the last week. The barnacle geese don't seem fussed, but the cranes have not been impressed!
Reed warblers have started arriving for summer! These birds breed across Europe and winter in Africa, making the 4000 mile trip each year to spend summer around the UK. Their loud call can often be heard at our reedbed shelter, the saline lagoon & amphibian ponds. #SpringWatch
Some fantastic photos nicely showing the interest the sand martin are showing in the new artificial bank! Thanks for sharing @mwhitelock

Today is #InternationalFlamingoDay and if you didn't know, we have a flock of over 50 Chilean flamingos in our collection, the only flamingos in the North East! Read about our flamingos and their history here at Washington 👉 bit.ly/north-east-fla…
Public newt survey - Sat 27 April | 2pm Reserve manager John invites visitors to join him at the amphibian ponds as the team check their newt-friendly traps, as part of our regular survey work. Included with admission, no booking needed, meet at the amphibian ponds at 2pm.
On 22 June, WWT is joining a march to #RestoreNatureNow We’ll march for wetlands, and for their mood-boosting, carbon-storing, habitat-creating superpowers. Nature may be declining, but hope is not lost. Save the date, and find out more 👉 wwt.org.uk/restore-nature…
Hello and welcome to another #ondayMindfulMinute. 60 seconds of uninterrupted nature from our wonderful wetlands. This week we enjoyed some time with a preening male mandarin duck in our Eclipse exhibit. What a handsome chap!
Have you heard about our new visitor app? You can: 🎟️ Get 10% off admission ☕ Get a free hot drink with a café purchase 🗺️ Navigate around our site with the interactive map ℹ️ Get updates & notifications of events & sightings Read more & download 👉 bit.ly/WWT-Washington…
Join our reserve team tomorrow (Sat 20 April) at 11am for a Wild Walk around Wader Lake. See migration species such as avocet, nesting lapwing & grey heron youngsters in their nest, before finishing at the Vic Robins Hide where we will be on the lookout for sand martin.
Newt survey season is here & our reserve team were pleased to count 4 GC newts + eggs & 6 smooth newts in our amphibian ponds last week - fantastic news! ℹ️ Reserve manager John is fully trained & licensed in newt handling, despite the vibes this smooth newt may be giving...
The bluebells are out in Spring Gill! This delicate flower carpets our ancient woodland, creating a wonderful atmosphere to enjoy a walk or even a mindful moment. Let us know if you've spotted any! #Springwatch
Wonderful photos from visitors @johnfulla - thanks for sharing!🤩

Good morning and welcome to another #MondayMindfulMinute. This week we enjoyed a moment with a common kestrel on the lookout near our old oak!
We've been excited to see at least four #SandMartin pairs checking out the artifical sand martin bank around Wader Lake! While the weather isn't playing ball just yet, they can be seen flitting around the lake feeding during those few-and-far-between sunny spells. #SpringWatch
An abundance of snakes-head fritillary are around Forgotten Meadow. This early flowering plant likes wet meadows & floodplain grasslands, and is a great wildflower advocate for wetland conservation, providing a source of food for bees & other invertebrates! #SpringWatch

My wife and I had a lovely day out on Wednesday for my birthday at @WWTWashington courtesy of my pal @allom_john and his wifeJackie. Highlights included Reed Warbler, Common Sandpiper, large number of Avocets, Common Terns, Greenshank and Sand Martins. A big thank you to them.
Last weekend we managed to nip to @WWTWashington for an hour or so for a second attempt at capturing the sand martins and managed to capture a #barnswallow picking up a snack off Wader Lake. #wetlands #wwt #wwtwetlands #wwtwashington #wildlifephotography #nikonz #200500mmf56

Black-headed/Med Gull Hybrid @WWTWashington on Wader lake , mid-March.
First attempt trying to capture the #sandmartins at @WWTWashington last weekend. Quite a few coming and going, capturing them in flight at any size proved tricky. Even the ones I have are heavily cropped. Like the way they choose a hole and peep out of it. 🙂 #wetlands #wwt
