Waddesdon Wetland Creation
The first wetland mosaic habitat for the Thame catchment
Freshwater plants and animals are benefiting from a two-hectare wetland creation project on the Waddesdon estate in Buckinghamshire.
Situated on the floodplain of the River Thame, the Eythrope Wetland was the first of its kind in the Thame catchment. It has now become a local wildlife site because of its wetland bird community.
