Some more shots from our walk around the wetlands. It’s a lovely place to go, they do a lot of conservation of endangered species, and have a good cafe too!
The Bat Tree
As we walked through the woodlands, a herd of geese came charging at us, the parents being very protective and the babies wanting seeds.
