Trimley Marshes, Nature reserve and Site of Special Scientific Interest in Suffolk, England.
Trimley Marshes spans 77 hectares of wetland ecosystems with shallow lagoons, islands, and reedbeds along the River Orwell estuary.
The reserve was established in 1990 on former farmland to compensate for ecological changes caused by the Port of Felixstowe expansion.
Suffolk Wildlife Trust manages this protected area, offering educational programs about wetland conservation and bird migration patterns.
Visitors can access free parking and walk 45 minutes on gravel paths to reach several bird observation hides and the weekend-operating visitor center.
The reserve's varied habitats support redshank, black-tailed godwit, marsh harrier, and occasional rare species like black-winged stilt and pectoral sandpiper.
