Waterside countdown: 2. Horseshoe Lake

Welcome to the ninth in my series of pictorial guides. This time I’m showcasing my top ten favourite waterside viewpoints, selected from our ‘Greenspace on your doorstep’ directory.

At number 2 is Horseshoe Lake in Berkshire…

A number of bird species visit this picturesque lake at varying times throughout the year.  Some of them are illustrated in my lifetime favourite series of books, The Natural History of Britain & Europe, (a series of 5, published in 1979).

For directions, information and more photographs, go to the Horseshoe Lake entry in ‘Greenspace on your doorstep’.
