Welcome to the LDV NNR ringing blog, this blog is designed to share the experiences, findings and tales from a group of dedicated ringers. We specialise in conservation orientated research projects, largely focusing on wildfowl, waders, owls and birds of conservation concern, in and around the Vale of York NNR's.

NB - Whilst the purpose of this blog was initially designed to cover our nationally important wildfowl ringing activities, it now also features wildlife and work posts, explaining how we manage the NNR for both wildlife and people.

15/10/20 - New Aviva 'easy-access' path

Earlier this week we were pleased to welcome a small team of staff from Aviva, York, as our first corporate volunteer group of the year. Complete with additional risk assessments and following Covid guidelines, the team split into small groups and worked hard helping us complete our ‘access for all’ path to the hides at Bank Island. 

We were delighted that Aviva staff could be here to help us complete the path, with the project being part funded through the Aviva Community Fund. If the current situation with the virus and initial lock down has shown us anything, it’s how much we value and need access to green space and the natural environment – so it’s great to finally be able to say that our new ‘easy-access’ path is now open, and that more people will now be able to access, enjoy and appreciate the reserve and its wildlife as a result of this work. 


Additional and enlarged wader scrapes have also been created as part of the improvements, with willows also cleared along the river bank to improve the view from the hide - new ramps to the hide are also to follow. Many thanks to everyone who has contributed to the path either practically or through donations.
