Here at Rye Meads we put apples out on a special platform for water voles which brings them nice and close for visitors to see. We also put apples on our bird feeding station which can attract winter thrushes, which is something you can do in your own gardens. We have a big apple tree on the reserve which usually provides us with lots of apples, but this year, the apple crop has almostly completely failed.
