Today definitely has an autumnal feel. Walking around the reedbed trail this morning taking the Summer Treasure Trail down I couldn’t help but feel a bit sad summer is over. The trail has been very popular over the holidays with almost 300 children taking part and it’s been lovely having so many families down at the reserve. Our wildlife garden has proved a popular spot for a picnic in the sun and our ice creams have been a hit too.

Even though summer has left us don’t be disheartened because there’s still so much to look forward to. We’ve got plenty of events coming up in the next few weeks to keep you busy. If you don’t mind an early start then we’ve got a Wader Wonderland walk on Saturday 21st September at Freiston Shore which should be a nature spectacle not to miss. At Frampton on the same day we have our Giving Nature a Home Day where there will be fun family activities and you can learn how you can help wildlife in your garden. Our Birds for Beginners course on the 22nd September will help you with identifying our feathered friends and our Autumn Wildlife Walk on the same day will be a great chance to see what’s out and about on the reserve.

We’ve also got some ghostly goings-on happening over the October half-term and regular wildlife walks over the coming months so make sure to visit our website for a full list of events. We hope to see you soon!
