Surprises

Gerry received a phone call to head to Tesco to collect a bag of bird seed that we had won!  Katie had seen the competition advertised and entered Foxglove.  Thank you very much Tesco.  The seed will be used in the back garden so visitors can see the variety of birds that feed there. 

Birds to watch out for include Nuthatch, Robin and Goldfinch.  Coal Tits are also returning to the reserve from their breeding grounds in the local conifer plantations.

More good news.  Many thanks to Moto Hospitality for their grant of £150 to purchase some tools to assist the volunteers in their many varied tasks around the reserve, including keeping the paths and boardwalks in good order.
