Hide closure: Sunday 9 November

No access to Ron Barker, Hale and Mere View Hides
Unfortunately, we have had a recent case of avian influenza, commonly known as bird flu, in our collection birds. To prevent further spread of the disease, we are putting in place some additional protection measures, which includes testing the birds in our duckery. To allow our teams the time and space to do this, we’ve temporarily closed this part of the wetland reserve and will reopen on Monday 10 November.

Very few reports recieved today, but the highlight was a Red Kite which flew past the reserve mid afternoon heading towards Burscough Bridge.

The 1st sum/2nd cal year Little Gull was still present from Ron Barker Hide, also an adult Mediterranean Gull was on the Mere briefly.
