Hide closure: Sunday 9 November

No access to Ron Barker, Hale and Mere View Hides
Unfortunately, we have had a recent case of avian influenza, commonly known as bird flu, in our collection birds. To prevent further spread of the disease, we are putting in place some additional protection measures, which includes testing the birds in our duckery. To allow our teams the time and space to do this, we’ve temporarily closed this part of the wetland reserve and will reopen on Monday 10 November.

Close alert

Good for Geese

Another 10,000+ Pink-footed Geese day. No reports received but I bet there is a few unusual goose sp. tucked away in the flocks.

Raptors have included Merlin, 3 Peregrine, Marsh Harrier, 2 Common Buzzard, Sparrowhawk and Kestrel.

If you are visiting the reserve, do pop in to the in focus shop to report anything you have seen. We maybe able to point you in the right direction for anything that has been seen that day too.

Currently it should be possible to see 50+ species of wild bird on the reserve on a good day.
