I am planning to visit Arundel, if anyone will be going there it would be great to meet up.

Just out of interest it says on the WWT web site:

"Photography is permitted on site providing it is for personal use only. All commercial/stock library photography must be agreed in advance with the centre and is subject to a fee."

Just so people know, in case they get any really good ones!

I aim to go the the London Wetlands centre on the Sunday, hate to say my one and only trip was some 5 years or so ago so my knowledge of the site is not too good.. Sunday lunch seems sorted - they do a damned fine carvery there..........

For London based people a Bittern has been regularly reported this winter, but I'm not sure just how photographic it will be. I recall one good hide for duck photography, but I am sure the reed beds will be totally different to when I last went when it was recently opened.
