Where to Photograph Birds in the UK

We are attempting to list all places where photographers can photograph wild birds within the UK. This is the start of a list that will both grow over time and hopefully we will be able to add more columns or information.

The entries managed by the RSPB and WWT are free to enter for members. The majority of the RSPB sites have free access and in this list we have marked with an * those sites which have an Entry Fee or Parking Fee for members of the public.

Where the name of the Reserve is hyperlinked this links to a Location or Featured Location page with more information on this site and over time more of these will be added, we will be delighted if some of you would like to also produce location or featured location pages.
