Enjoy a lovely and peaceful outing at the Pulborough Brooks RSPB!

Spending time observing birds in their natural habitat is such a calming way to connect with nature. The note about being respectful of the birds and other visitors is great, it's always nice to remember that the wildlife experience is best when we keep things quiet and peaceful.

The social aspect before and after the walk, and the opportunity for a treat at the café, definitely add a nice touch to the visit.

Sussex is known for its wonderful variety of birdlife, so there's always something interesting to spot!
