The warm weather has brought us birders fresh opportunities.

Locally Weirwood has been partially drained to facilitate dam repairs, whilst Bough Beech also has seen the water level fall drastically.

I’ve had a few trips out this weekend, and found the different habitat has brought in more waders.
