Goodbye sightings
Today Millie (Decoy Dog) and myself James Lees (Reserve Warden) will be leaving WWT after 11 years. . I have just finished my last hide round, we think I must have done about 2,500 over the years, how many miles is that! I have really enjoyed my time here and have seen and done some wonderful things. One of the best parts of the job has been meeting so many of you, whether it be on various events, swans feeds or safaris etc over the years. I will keep an eye on what's happening from my new home in Canada.
Thanks and best wishes to you all.....James
