Insh Marshes Bird Reserve

Overview

One of Europe’s most important wetlands, Insh Marshes is a popular spring nesting site for goldeneyes. You’re also likely to see lapwings, redshanks and curlews, as well as oystercatchers, snipe and wigeon. The marshes flood in winter and provide roosting and feeding for flocks of whooper swans and greylag geese.

Best Time To Visit: November to March to see over-wintering swans, April to June to see breeding waders.

Facilities: Parking, picnic area, information point, birdwatching hides and three nature trails.
