The Cotswold Water Park

The Cotswold Water Park (CWP) lies in 40 square miles of farmland and wetland between Cirencester, Swindon and Lechlade. To date 145 lakes have been flooded (April 2006) and this is set to increase over 50 years, creating other wetland habitats. CWP holds nationally important numbers of wintering waterbird, e.g. Smew, Great Crested Grebe, Gadwall, Coot and Pochard. In Spring and Summer visitors can hear Nightingales or see flocks of Hobby’s migrating through.

On Wed 17/5/06 a gentleman left an Optolyth draw tube telescope in the bird hide at Cokes Pit LNR (CWP 34).

It was left about 4pm. It had no tripod and was in a green 'Kowa' case.
