Middleton Lakes RSPB Reserve

Summer's the ideal time to spot a long, slithery snake swimming in the lake or lazing in the sun, while the baby ducklings wade in the water! Tucked away in the RSPB reserve, this site was acquired by them in 2007, and restoration work was done to make it fully accessible to the public. Middleton Lakes is famous for the numerous birds that fly in from all around to set up home there through the year. So make sure you keep time in the day to do a little bird-watching and spot some amazing, colorful ones fly right past you! Other activities include getting up close and personal with nature by climbing on the trees and playing around in the grassy areas.
