A small wetlands reserve with reedbeds, shallow pits and hides ideal for bird and waterscape photography. Visit at dawn or dusk for active waterfowl, kingfishers and reflection shots; migration and winter months offer large flocks. Flat, easy paths and hides make it accessible; informal parking nearby in Irthlingborough and no entry fee. Expect muddy edges after rain and limited facilities—bring waterproof boots and respect quiet zones.
