Fortunately, the strength of the wind has lessened slightly and the forecast is for it to drop to a safer level tomorrow. Therefore, I am pleased to announce that the reserve paths will be open again tomorrow. Please note that the roadside barrier is still being closed overnight. Please see Ali's blog post from earlier on in the week for more details. The roadside barrier will be open before 8am tomorrow morning and will close at dusk (by 6pm at the latest).

As I mentioned earlier, we have plenty of nestboxes left to be built for our nestbox building event this weekend. As we have plenty left (around 37 to be exact!) if you would like to come and build one just drop in between 10am-4pm. The cost is £8 per box and somebody will be on hand to help you assemble it. We hope to see you there!

A full "recent sightings" post will follow tomorrow morning but I will leave you today with a photo of some sun rays peaking through the storm clouds this morning:
