British Steel Hide

On Tuesday we had a great view of six spoonbills and a beautiful spotted redshank in amongst them. There have been good numbers of black-tailed godwit this week along with our other familiar waders - lapwing, redshank and greenshank. It's always a great sight to see thirty of forty cormorants line up neatly on the strip of land between the two lagoons.

Millennium Wetlands

We have had lots more sightings of foxes this week, its nice to see how individual they all! We have caught otters on camera again so be sure to check out our other social media as we will try and upload that footage soon. The ring necked duck has been amongst the many tufted ducks again this week but she's very hard to spot. The snipes also blend in very well with the islands on deep water lake but a jack snipe was spotted amongst them too. Some beautiful male pintails and pochards have been on the lake as well.
