Our fantastic team of dedicated volunteers have once
again been busy helping us with a variety of jobs recently, the main jobs being
birch removal and timber extraction, but they’ve also found time to help
maintain the hides, repair signage around the site, top up the bird feeding
stations, organise the workshop and collect Wigeon droppings for a study on
seed dispersal by waterfowl - whilst having fun along the way.
Whilst working on the reserve we also try and find time to enjoy some of our amazing
wildlife too – the team carried out a survey for Jack Snipe at Bank Island
(ringing four at the same time) and helped out with another cannon net catch of
Wigeon last week – great to have the extra pairs of hands to speed up the
operation, and a chance for everyone to admire their beautiful plumage up close
– as always many thanks to all involved.
