Burton Mere Wetlands: Stop press - look what the wind's blown in!

Whilst just perusing the web, I spotted that avocets have returned to Burton Mere.

Stop press - look what the wind's blown in!

Our first #avocets of the year have turned up since yesterday, hunkering down on the scrape with good views from the visitor centre & Bunker hide.

  • Great to see the Avocets arriving showing springtime is on the way - somewhere although it's blowing hard here and very cloudy, no wonder they are hunkering down. !! Thanks for update Mike, hope to get back there maybe later in the week.

    You're welcome.

    I aim to get up there sometime in the next week or two, but doubt this week, I think the week has been mapped out for me.

    Think I need to get back to work for a rest!

  • Hopefully they will arrive in N Yorkshire soon as we have a couple of breeding sites locally.
