Thursday 11 and Friday 12 December

Some of our birds will be off display on Thursday 11 and Friday 12 December, while vets carry out some routine health checks. If you would still like to visit us on these days, admission tickets will only be available on arrival and will be reduced to £10 an adult and £5 a child.

Close alert

Pinks

A brief update. Around 3000 Pink-footed Geese have been on the reserve today, with groups coming and going. We'll give you a roost count when available. It's looking interesting after ex hurricane Helene departs the UK on Wednesday setting up an airflow from Iceland which could result in a big influx at the weekend.

A few Pink-footed Geese on the Mere this morning

Waders: 400+ Lapwing, 30+ Snipe, 10+ Ruff, Black-tailed Godwit and Green Sandpiper.

Great to see a few more Pintail coming in from high, presumed new arrivals.

See previous days for a fuller picture.
