Westfields Outing to celebrate World Wetland's Day

Westfields gives an excellent opportunity to view wintering wildfowl and to learn about the importance of wetlands. Although we can never gaurantee what birds will be there on the day we hope to see Coot and Moorhen and Tufted Duck, the resident mute swans, heron and balckheaded gulls along with a possiblity of Pochard, Gadwall, little Grebes and others. Westfields is a central location to view wintering wildfowl.
