The reserve is also offering a unique activity for families called Wild Cards.
Available until the end of May, families can hire a pack of playing cards for £3 and use them to learn about nature's hidden heroes while exploring the reserve.
The cards feature strengths, superpowers, and fun facts about some of spring's most familiar species.
The reserve has urged visitors to grab a pack and "battle it out" to decide which creature will reign as the ultimate spring champion.
More information on these activities can be found by contacting the reserve on 01505 842 663 or via email at lochwinnoch@rspb.org.uk.
