Water levels on the reserve are providing an ideal opportunity to witness thousands of grazing and dabbling wildfowl from our Reedbed and Lyle hides.  Waders today have been seen mainly from Lyle hide; but with several thousand on the reserve large flocks can often be seen in the air from all hides. 

Mild conditions have meant that large numbers of swans are spending most of the day out in the fields feeding, returning to the reserve at dusk to roost.
