Examples of bird wildlife to be found after the extensive conservation project at Barton Broad in the Norfolk Broads. The information board shows us the species and kinds of birdlife thriving in this wetland, a region of east Anglia known for its important natural habitats after decades of neglect. Birds such as Coot, Mallard, Moorhen, Tern and Grebe are all surviving thanks to investment and a commitment to protect native species. Barton Broad is the largest Broad in the Ant Valley. It is a man-made landscape impacted by natural processes - the open water is a result of flooded peat diggings. The fen habitat around Barton Broad contributes to the largest fenland expanse in the UK and contains rare vegetation.
