Run by the Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust, a wildlife charity that has centres throughout Britain, Washington Waterfowl Park is both a fun day out for all the family, and an opportunity to learn about conservation. As well as the formal ponds in which captive birds, including some endangered species, can be seen at close quarters, there are over thirty acres of ponds, streams, grassland, and mature deciduous woodland, where wild birds, mammals and insects thrive in abundance. Hides are provided next to some ponds to enable quiet viewing of wild birds. There is a visitor centre with exhibitions, a souvenir shop, and a cafe. Admission: adults £5.95, concs £4.95, children £3.95.
