Wazihwei Nature Reserve (traditional Chinese: 挖子尾自然保留區; simplified Chinese: 挖子尾自然保留区; pinyin: Wāzǐwěi Zìrán Bǎoliú Qū) is a nature reserve in Bali District, New Taipei, Taiwan. It is home to egrets, mudskippers, and fiddler crabs.

The area was declared as a nature reserve by the Council of Agriculture on 10 January 1994 in order to prevent further damaging to the ecosystem due to the water pollution from Tamsui River.[1]
