Opis
This is one of a number of open waters in the area that attract resident and passage waterfowl. Wilstone has had a number of notable visits, eg perkoz rogaty and kropiatka and it is one of the best places in the region to watch waterfowl and waders. Nearby wet woodlands, pastures and hedgerows can be worth inspection, especially during spring and winter. Part of the reservoir is managed by the local Wildlife Trust.
Szczegóły
Dostęp
Official car parking is just off the road below the reservoir's western embankment and (steep) steps lead to the waterside; unofficial parking is possible near a farm shop near the reservoir's northern corner and also in Drayton Beauchamp village, south-east of the reservoir. Another possibility is the small amount of parking next to Wilstone cemetery. There are public footpaths that give direct access.
A footpath follows three sides of the water and deviates away from the fourth side to a dry feeder canal. In the nature reserve area there is a hide. Paths can be muddy. The route is unsuitable for wheelchairs and cycles, especially when the surface is muddy.

Although reservoir paths are level, steps provide access from the car park and may bar disabled users.
The access path to the hide (recently replaced) can show passerines, especially in spring and is worth slow, quiet access or a wait.
As well as "regulars" and occasionals, Wilstone attracts unexpected visitors; in 2021, 15 warzęcha briefly visited and 8 gęś białoczelna spent an extended visit and in 2020, a group of rybitwa czubata rested briefly. It's worth checking or monitoring the Herts Bird Club reports.
The reedbeds at "cemetery corner" are worth monitoring for waders.
