Enjoy a floodlit swan spectacular at Martin Mere

In a truly unique wildlife spectacle, WWT Martin Mere is offering you the opportunity to come along to centre to watch our wild swans in the moonlight.

The wild swans by floodlight events will take place every Tuesday night in January.  The Martin Mere Wetland Centre currently has record numbers of over 2400 Whooper Swans on the Mere, making this event a once in a lifetime opportunity to see huge numbers of wild swans in their natural habitat.

You will see beautiful wild swans and ducks at close quarters from the comfort of a heated observatory whilst the wardens provide a fascinating live commentary and answer any questions you may have.

To get a taste of what the event will be like you can also view the swans on our new live webcam on the mere. To watch, visit: http://www.wwt.org.uk/visit-us/webcams/martin-mere-reserve-webcam/
