Dalamere forest, Cheshire

[Kelsey7691]

I was wondering if anyone has been here?

What's it like for wildlife and photography, especially water fowl.

I'm considering going tomorrow if the weather holds up to get some photos.

Also, any other places with a good variety of water fowl near Nantwich?

Thanks

Used to live near Delemere. It's mainly forest walks and can be very busy, lots of dog walkers etc. There is a lake but I can't for the life of me remember what it's like for waterfowl.

Hurleston Reservoir is near Nantwich isn't it ?. I fished there a few times but again not sure about waterfowl.

What about Redesmere Lake - I don't think that's too far and it certainly has waterfowl.

Thank you I'll have a look at where you suggested.

I don't come from Cheshire way, only living here at uni so have no idea of the places around really :shake:

Have a look at Marbury Country Park and Anderton Country Park.
Both have plenty of wildlife, mere's, hides, River Weaver etc. You will not be disapointed.

Not sure where you are coming from but these are other locations you might consider:

Budworth Mere, Marbury, Inside a country park and Neumanns Flashes, Northwich near the road so you can park near and wander around
