Latest Sightings
6+ Marsh harriers have been spotted around the site along with kestrels, barn owls and sparrowhawks. Around the edges of the mere there are ruff, oystercatchers, snipe and black-tailed godwits and large deceits of lapwing which will take to the sky when a predator comes near. Also, the great white egret can still often be seen on the west bank of the mere. Keep an eye out for stoats which are easily identifiable by their short, black-tipped tails.
