It's spring again on the reserve with all of our garden birds in search of a site for a nest and great crested grebes displaying on the loch. The wonderful dance of the great crested grebe has begun and it won't now be long until their fluffy chicks are sitting on their backs. With the cafe now up an running, we can again use the cameras which today showed brilliant images of a male and female red breasted merganser behind St Serfs island. The usual suspects of ducks and a few mute swans were feeding in the bay, along with the regular buzzards patrolling the wetlands. It was great being able to watch some of the many herons feeding on the floods and the wet grassland and flying elegantly across the reserve! The two sea eagles were observed on Castle Island on Wednesday, so it is definitely worth keeping an eye out for them if you are out and about on our reserve in the near future. Now that the breeding season is starting to begin it is a great time to visit RSPB Loch Leven, and with our new and improved cafe a spring visit can be all the more enjoyable.
