Sir Peter Scott's vision became a reality at Slimbridge in 1946, when he realised how many thousands of geese depended on the shores of the Severn Estuary. It is now a world-renowned reserve for waterbirds set in 120 acres. The new £6.2m visitor centre houses a wildlife art gallery, The Hanson Discovery Centre, the Waterside Restaurant, a cinema and the Sloane Observation Tower (which provides the best view of the Severn in the whole of Gloucestershire). Slimbridge is an important wintering area for migrating waterbirds such as Bewick's Swans as well as being home to all six types of flamingos. en http://www.dsnet.info/node/428 <!-- google_ad_section_start --> <img src="http://www.dsnet.info/system/files/images/DS030780.preview.jpg" alt="Untitled image" title="Untitled image" class="image preview" width="640" height="458" /><br /> <!-- google_ad_section_end --> http://www.dsnet.info/node/428#comment Slimbridge Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust Tue, 06 Mar 2007 01:46:04 +0000 DaveS 428 at http://www.dsnet.info http://www.dsnet.info/node/427 <!-- google_ad_section_start --> <img src="http://www.dsnet.info/system/files/images/DS030779.preview.jpg" alt="Untitled image" title="Untitled image" class="image preview" width="640" height="459" /><br /> <!-- google_ad_section_end --> http://www.dsnet.info/node/427#comment Slimbridge Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust Tue, 06 Mar 2007 01:45:29 +0000 DaveS 427 at http://www.dsnet.info http://www.dsnet.info/node/426 <!-- google_ad_section_start --> <img src="http://www.dsnet.info/system/files/images/DS030777.preview.jpg" alt="Untitled image" title="Untitled image" class="image preview" width="640" height="459" /><br /> <!-- google_ad_section_end --> http://www.dsnet.info/node/426#comment Slimbridge Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust Tue, 06 Mar 2007 01:44:51 +0000 DaveS 426 at http://www.dsnet.info http://www.dsnet.info/node/425 <!-- google_ad_section_start --> <img src="http://www.dsnet.info/system/files/images/DS030732.preview.jpg" alt="Untitled image" title="Untitled image" class="image preview" width="640" height="456" /><br /> <!-- google_ad_section_end --> http://www.dsnet.info/node/425#comment Slimbridge Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust Tue, 06 Mar 2007 01:43:50 +0000 DaveS 425 at http://www.dsnet.info http://www.dsnet.info/node/424 <!-- google_ad_section_start --> <img src="http://www.dsnet.info/system/files/images/DS030729.preview.jpg" alt="Untitled image" title="Untitled image" class="image preview" width="640" height="456" /><br /> <!-- google_ad_section_end --> http://www.dsnet.info/node/424#comment Slimbridge Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust Tue, 06 Mar 2007 01:43:09 +0000 DaveS 424 at http://www.dsnet.info http://www.dsnet.info/node/423 <!-- google_ad_section_start --> <img src="http://www.dsnet.info/system/files/images/DS030728a.preview_0.jpg" alt="Untitled image" title="Untitled image" class="image preview" width="640" height="454" /><br /> <!-- google_ad_section_end --> http://www.dsnet.info/node/423#comment Slimbridge Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust Tue, 06 Mar 2007 01:42:27 +0000 DaveS 423 at http://www.dsnet.info http://www.dsnet.info/node/422 <!-- google_ad_section_start --> <img src="http://www.dsnet.info/system/files/images/DS030728.preview.jpg" alt="Untitled image" title="Untitled image" class="image preview" width="640" height="457" /><br /> <!-- google_ad_section_end --> http://www.dsnet.info/node/422#comment Slimbridge Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust Tue, 06 Mar 2007 01:41:51 +0000 DaveS 422 at http://www.dsnet.info http://www.dsnet.info/phoenicopterus_andinus <!-- google_ad_section_start --> <img src="http://www.dsnet.info/system/files/images/DS030674.preview.jpg" alt="Andean flamingo (phoenicopterus andinus )" title="Andean flamingo (phoenicopterus andinus )" class="image preview" width="640" height="458" /><table width="20%"> <tr> <td>Kingdom</td> <td>Animalia</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Phylum</td> <td>Chordata</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Class</td> <td>Aves</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Order</td> <td>Phoenicopteriformes</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Family</td> <td>Phoenicopteridae</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Genus</td> <td>Phoenicopterus</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Species</td> <td>Phoenicopterus andinus</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Conservation status</td> <td><strong> Vulnerable</strong></td> </tr> </table> <br class="clear" /><!-- google_ad_section_end --> http://www.dsnet.info/phoenicopterus_andinus#comment Slimbridge Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust Aves Neoaves Neogna Phoenicopteriformes phoenicopterus phoenicopterus andinus Tue, 06 Mar 2007 01:41:18 +0000 DaveS 421 at http://www.dsnet.info http://www.dsnet.info/node/420 <!-- google_ad_section_start --> <img src="http://www.dsnet.info/system/files/images/DS030669.preview.jpg" alt="Untitled image" title="Untitled image" class="image preview" width="640" height="457" /><br /> <!-- google_ad_section_end --> http://www.dsnet.info/node/420#comment Slimbridge Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust Tue, 06 Mar 2007 01:40:34 +0000 DaveS 420 at http://www.dsnet.info http://www.dsnet.info/node/419 <!-- google_ad_section_start --> <img src="http://www.dsnet.info/system/files/images/DS030667.preview.jpg" alt="Untitled image" title="Untitled image" class="image preview" width="640" height="456" /><br /> <!-- google_ad_section_end --> http://www.dsnet.info/node/419#comment Slimbridge Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust Tue, 06 Mar 2007 01:39:55 +0000 DaveS 419 at http://www.dsnet.info
