Where?
Nestled on the Isle of Sheppey, on the coast in North Kent near unfashionable Sittingbourne, where it’s all industrial parks and industrial plants, is this haven of wilderness. Elmley Nature Reserve is a twitcher’s paradise, 3,300 acres of wild marshland which allows its abundant bird population to thrive – wildfowl and waders and birds of prey - as well as hares, rabbits, frogs and all the less cute creatures below the soil and waterline.
