The oldest nature reserve in England, Wicken Fen is a wetland remnant of the Cambridgeshire Fens that once covered large expanses of the county. It has been recognised for its unique environmental importance as an animal and bird habitat, with its sedge beds, reed communities and Fen meadows supporting a wide variety of flora and fauna. Almost 5000 species of insects, animals and birds have been recorded at Wicken. The Visitor Centre features exhibitions on the history and ecology of the fenlands, and staff are available to help visitors record their sightings of flora and fauna species.
