Nine-year-old Roman Moss was one visitor to take on the challenge and become a ‘Junior Wetland Ranger’. He said: “My favourite part was measuring the swan and doing the health checks, like the real rangers do, and I liked finding and counting the birds in the ‘Role Call’ challenge.”
As well as Junior Wetland Rangers challenges there are many reasons to visit WWT during the summer holidays, including trying family pond dipping sessions, boarding a ‘Wetland Discovery’ boat ride to see Sussex wildlife and strolling through the Coastal Creek aviary to spot diving ducks and avocets.
You can book your visit online and WWT Members can visit for free all year round.
