Good afternoon. Apologies for a lack of updates this week, I have been out of the office. I will post some more detailed recent sightings on Thursday. However, I can’t resist posting these excellent pictures that were taken on the reserve on Wednesday 18 April by local photographer Ken Clegg:

Thank you very much to Ken for sharing these great images with us.

We hope to see you soon!
