a Stoat in full Ermine was seen along the Northern Trail for the first time this winter.  This is the third year one has been seen here but this year it is completely white bar the black tail tip... I would so like to see it!

Enjoy your Big Garden Bird Watch at home but hope to see some of you on the reserve as well!
