Last week the car parks at Bank Island and North Duffield
Carrs were given a spruce up, with them both being re-leveled and the pot
holes filled in, followed by a new top dressing of gravel - making both sites
more user friendly.
The team have also been busy working in our wildlife garden at the
NNR base at Bank Island, weeding, planting and pruning ready for the butterfly
and bee season. If you haven’t visited recently then why not plan a visit
soon and send us any sightings or counts you make from around the reserve.
Recently there has been a
number of interesting sightings including several Common Scoter, a pair of
Cranes and a large movement of Little Gulls. Over the last few days there has
also been a steady arrival of summer migrants including good numbers of Willow
Warblers and Blackcaps, along with a steady build-up of House Martins and the
first few Yellow Wagtails. All hides are now accessible once again – although
wellies are still needed!
