WWT Arundel is a special place in Arundel, West Sussex, England. It's one of nine nature reserves run by the Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust (WWT). This charity works to protect wild birds and their homes.

The reserve is about 60 acres big, which is like 45 football fields! It's located in the beautiful Arun valley. Here, you can see many kinds of ducks, geese, and swans.

One very special bird living here is the Hawaiian goose, also called the nēnē. It's the rarest goose in the world! WWT Arundel helps protect this endangered species.

The centre has different areas that look like bird homes from all over the world. For example, there's a part that looks like a volcanic lake called Mývatn from Iceland. Visitors can get really close to the birds, sometimes even feeding them by hand. There are also special "hides" where you can watch birds without disturbing them.
