Bird feeding has returned to Martin Mere.
Pick up a bag of bird feed and feed the birds in the living collection.
The collection represents birds from wetlands in Australia, Africa, Asia, the Americas, Europe and the Middle East. You’ll be able to hand feed swans like our beautiful black swans, geese such as friendly nenes, and many ducks such as the shelduck, white-faced whistling duck, Indian runner duck, and tufted duck, making your visit that extra bit special.
To buy seeds to hand feed birds, ask at the information desk on arrival.
