    Hi Darren, I'd second Darren's suggestion of trying Chew Valley Lake. You can see plenty of birds from Herons Green and Herriot's Bridge without having to use the hides. Alternatively, if you feel like/can manage going a little further away, it might be a great day out trying to look for the...
