May 2016 Reed Warblers very active
These are great little warblers that I always enjoy getting a sighting of. I think this is especially so as when I was growing up we never really got to where there were reed beds.

May 2016 Great to see Avocets colonising reserve in Gloucestershire UK
It is saving me a lot of travelling. In the past I have travelled to the east coast to see these elegant waders. It is only in the last few years that they have colonised my local reserve Slimbridge WWT. It is amazing how quickly things can change in nature. It is also a tribute to the great work done by the reserve staff.

May 2016 Great Crane Project breeding activity!
It's great to see the breeding activity as the result of the Great Crane Project. How soon will it be before these birds have their own self sustaining colony?

May 2016 Willow Warblers now easily seen working their way through bushes.
These are great little visitors that fly in from sub-Sahara Africa all the way to the uk. It is great just to watch them foraging as they work their way through bushes and scrub.
