**The flood waters have partially subsided enough to open the majority of the reserve. Pathways to First Hide, Townend Hide and Singleton Hide are clear as is the trail to Ousefleet Hide.**
Recent sightings of 2x bittern, marsh harrier, russian white fronted geese, pink-footed geese, 21 x avocet, 184 black-tailed godwits, ring plover and goosander!
The trail to Reedling and Marshland hides remains under a considerable depth of water and must remain closed until the water subsides and we are able to assess them for safety purposes.
