Reserves update

In a rain soaked day, the marshes at Trimley were packed with waterbirds.  Despite the reservoir still being iced over there were an amazinging number (several thousand) of ducks and geese on the flooded areas.  Marsh Harrier, Buzzard, Peregrine, Woodcock, Barn Owl and Waxwings have all been seen in the last couple of days.

At Hazlewood up to 350 White-fronted Geese are being seen on the reserve; today there were over 1000 Teal in front of the hide and two Woodcock were seen at the cattle crush.
