Wexford Wildfowl Reserve — Attraction in The Borough District of Wexford

I wondered whether I should give this 5 stars, but I decided to as I could not fault the layout and provision from this wonderful reserve apart from the current lack of birds 😄. There were plenty of dragonflies and swallows, including some nesting in the hides. Some swans and moorhens, and I think one blackcap. However, on the beach ate there were lots of Brent Geese, Terns, Black Tailed Godwits, Oystercatchers, Heron, Little Egret and plenty of Gulls. I also enjoyed the old pump house building as a good piece of history and an interesting roof light. The weather was very kind to us. Thank you to all involved for the hard work of everyone involved in the upkeep and maintenence of this beautiful area. I also had an informative chat with, I think it was Paul, a warden, busy in his work. Well worth searching out and visiting....
