The blogs’ 1st. birthday

Monday, March 8th 2010

It is exactly one year today since the blog began! Glancing back over the previous posts it is clear that a great deal has been achieved at Foxglove over the past twelve months. The blog also highlights just how many different people in the community benefit from the reserve, from school and college groups to families and volunteers.

Alice releasing a Blue Tit

The bird ringing room was a hive of activity with over three hundred birds processed today. Here you can see Alice releasing a Blue Tit back into the wild after it was ringed. Species ringed include Brambling, Kingfisher, Reed Bunting, Great Spotted Woodpecker and Siskin.
