An otter, a nene and a red-breasted goose were among the creatures transformed into a giant Lego animal model trail at the London Wetland Centre.
Nine specially-crafted Lego characters have taken up residence at the nature reserve this week and will remain there for five weeks.

They include Natalie the nene, Benedict the Bewick's swan and Flavia the Andean flamingo, created by the UK's only certified-Lego professional, Tom Poulsom.

The centre's general manager, David Green, said: "Here at London Wetland Centre, we take particular pride in helping to conserve the Hawaiian goose, the nene, the world’s rarest goose, which was originally identified as a species that needed protecting by our founder Sir Peter Scott.

Almost 92,000 Lego bricks were used over 955 hours to create the model animals.
