Admired your photography for many years, but only recently discovered your RUclips videos. Your enthusiasm and passion is infectious. And what a plug for slimbridge! It looks amazing.
Really enjoyed that, thanks Andy. So refreshing to see a pro wildlife photographer being so positive about somewhere easily accessible for mere mortals!!
I went regularly when I lived in the area, but the last time I went, three coaches of school kids arrived the same time as me. It was St Trinians! I know they were there to learn, but I realised the next few hours would not be good for pictures. So I left!
A really excellent video Andy giving a really good overview of this amazing place. When I am next in the U.K I will make a big effort to visit this place 👍🙏🇬🇧
I'm really glad you made this video Andy, because Slimbridge is a place I've wanted to visit for years! I want to go even more now! Photographically speaking I'd be like a kid in a sweet shop! I use a mobility scooter too, so I'm pleased it's fully wheelchair accessible.
Really enjoyed the video Andy. One of my favourite places and good to see your own experiences there. Have just been but must go back when that new aviary is open. We spoke to one of the bird trainers and the educational living wetland theatre demos with birds sound interesting too and might have some photo opportunities. Saw some Oystercatchers and Lapwings really close for photos at the South Lake hide - there’s always something unexpected for me! WWT do such great work.
Great tour of Slimbridge Andy :) Been a while since I was there but it was one of my main haunts when I was first getting into photography in the late 90s! The ‘in focus’ hide was always my favourite for feeding time too :)
Thank you Andy, a great video. Very informative and fun as always. Welney is my nearest site, and I love it but I must get across to Slimbridge. It looks amazing, thanks again 📷👏
Thanks Andy , never been but will try to go soon , I have been a sports and event photographer , but beginning to get an interest in wildlife , as I will be returning to Thailand soon . I am thinking of a pair of binoculars , but as a photographer for many years I know the names I should go for if I had deep pockets , but you point me in the right direction best of the cheaper ones , and magnification . thanks again .
Great informative video for ANY visitors Andy, but good tips for photographers! A bit too far for a day out for us. But worth a visit if we are down that way for a few days. Cheers Pal.

Welcome aboard! And it's no plug I genuinely love the place
Thanks for the guide! We're hoping to visit Slimbridge soon to grab some videos and photos.
You should!

I’m mortal and no better than anyone else, my armpits smell just the same!!!!

Great informative video, thanks. Love your enthusiasm. Well played sir. Bravo 👏 Phil AKA keepclickingphotography

As a WWT member this was pretty awesome video Andy, thank you for sharing *SUBBED*
Welcome aboard!
Very helpful. We now live about half an hour away and I imagine I’ll get an annual membership.
A really excellent video Andy giving a really good overview of this amazing place. When I am next in the U.K I will make a big effort to visit this place 👍🙏🇬🇧
Please do!
Thanks Andy, preparing for a trip to Slimbridge and your insight is gold. Thank you!
Hope you enjoy it!
Fantastic footage 👏

Go for it!
The Peng observatory isn't really really cool - it's really really warm! Especially on a cold January day!
Excellent video especially for individuals like me who don’t know Simbridge very well
Glad it was helpful! And more to come
Excellent walk around and well done.
Many thanks!
Must try and get over there again - thanks for the info
Please do!

Sure 10x42 are good and small. Olympus or Opticron are very good indeed.

Absolutely mate but they have other centres too that might be closer!
Slimbridge is very close to me, so your video was extremely interesting but tell me, did you have to get permission to video there?
nope because I'm just a paying member of the public and just doing vlogs that positively show how great it is
