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#102 million cubic metres of water.
Inversnaid on Loch Lomond

Birding is for everyone no matter how good or bad we are at it,enjoy it while you can
Seaman,I have no idea but although that sounds a lot think even Carsington reservoir holds nearly 20 times that amount if my calculations are correct.
Great to have a guess anyway,think I might need 20 clues.
Thought about Arne but English Channel may have a bit more water than that.
I don't think it as big as it sounds but I am flounder about with these. Wild wild guess Radipole Lake, Weymouth.

Inchmickery is my guess.

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

Loch garten cos with water I'm thinking Lochs
Ray
a good laugh is better than a tonic
Just had another think and it could be one of MrsT'S trick clues
Its not forced to be still water eg a waterfall or river or water taken to top up a reserve
Water used in a year etc.
Only an Idea
AT least you have an idea, Ray, which I don't - d'oh!
Hi MrsT,how about D S.Fits the bill water wise.Think the next clue might scupper it.
I've been thinking along the same lines as you, Ray, not still water. The trouble is I've no idea what that amount of water would look like. Roll on tomorrow's clue. :-)
What about hydro power
We could be going completely off track lol
