On one of my regular trips to Asda, I bought some new wellies and then had a real need to wear them out so we decided to take a trip to
Saltholme. Saltholme is a wildlife reserve and discovery park run by the RSPB which sits amongst a vast backdrop of industry, which apparently attracts the birds - they love the lights. Although Saltholme is a great place to catch sight of many regular and rare birds it is also a great place for families and a lovely walkout. Here are a few snaps from the visit we made recently...

Right in the heart of Teesside's Industry - near the Transporter Bridge! |

The reserve building - beautiful architecture with a great cafe and shop! |

Splashing around in my new wellies! |

Alice in Wonderland themed wooden sculptures! |

Sheep! Just roaming around!

Although we didn't really see any birds, although were we looking really? It was a really nice place to just walk around and get some fresh air. It's such a friendly place that is definitely worth a visit whether or not you are a twitcher!
Has anyone been before? What did you think?
I LOVE the Alice in Wonderland sculptures - so much fun :o) Xx
