Hello Folks,RSPB reserves are great places for you to get closer to nature. So what better reason than to have a quiz to see how much you know about them. Each Monday for 12 weeks, I will be posting a little teaser for you. Without looking in books or on the internet (i.e - no cheating), see if you can identify this RSPB reserve. On Wednesday, so as long as no-one has guessed it, I will post one clue. On Friday I will post the answer along with some additional information for your interest. Just for fun!: Make sure you keep an note of the first letter of each reserve as the weeks go by, and at the end of week 12, see if you can rearrange all 12 letters to spell out a message about our reserves.Here goes ....MYSTERY RSPB RESERVE#2Once thought to be gun emplacements to repel Napoleon, patches of pebbled ground at this site may have had a more macabre Bronze age purpose.
Thinking East Coast, perhaps Kent coast...My first punt is Dungeness but will have to research further. I don't count it as cheating, just improving my geographical knowledge Mrs T. :)

Sounds like a place for gun emplacements

a good laugh is better than a tonic
I think its Rainham Marshes too.
Clue: Thanks to Monty.
No more guesses folks? Answer will be revealed tomorrow!
No more guesses from me MrsT totally flummoxed with this one
I've "cheated" and I still can't work out the answer, so I'll not try a guess.

Look deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better.

Could be The Portsmouth area where HMS victory is based
