close and personal with the birds without disturbing them at all.

Spot rare species

If you visit in spring, look out for the 80 pairs of the rare spoonbills in the park with distinctive spatula-shaped beaks – there are only around 500 pairs in France. You’ll also see birds such as avocets (the bird on the RPSB symbol in the UK), oystercatchers, white stork, egrets, herons, black-winged stilts, black-tailed godwits and night herons. 

Meet baby birds – a treat for your kids!

Enjoy the delight on your children’s faces in when they see newly-hatched birds, cygnets and ducklings if you’re visiting in spring or early summer – it’ll be a childhood memory they’ll treasure.
