We held our usual 4th Sunday work party, clearing reed edges for new growth and Snipe to feed for the remainder of the winter, various areas of Crassula were cut and piled up to allow Teal, Snipe and whatever else to feed, the last of the willow cuts were burned, the layby hedge was cleared to make it safer to see when crossing, the Barn Owl box was emptied of all the Jackdaw rubbish and two of the boys towed in one of the rafts for servicing and to prevent Black Headed Gulls getting too established ahead of Common Tern arriving in late April. Steve caught a variety of great shots of us all at work, available to see at;

Meanwhile the Adult Winter Mediterranean Gull was seen on BSL, meaning with yesterday's 1st Winter, we have 2 in the area worth looking out for.
