Other news-

The Frampton Marsh bittern has yet to show itself again. if you happen to be on the reserve, and see the bittern (or any other rare bird for that matter) please drop in to the visitor centre and let us know.

Sorry, I tried to enter the image of the bittern, but computer say no!

 

Cheers,
