Avocet alert! 🙌

Two Tree Island nature reserve is bursting with life. Look at these adorable avocet chicks with their adults.

Our team and volunteers work consistently to ensure this reserve is supporting wildlife, and it's great to see the results! 👏

Our coast has a limited number of sites safe enough for birds to try to nest& raise their chicks. Oystercatchers, Ringed Plovers, Terns& Gulls all attempt to hatch eggs while battling the rising sea levels, predators& high footfall from summer visitors.

Happy #waderwednesday! The range and scale of wintering waders is a sight to behold! It shows why all our estuaries are SpecialProtectionAreas designated for the birds, and we would like to thank everyone who follows the Coastal Code, gives birds a space and spreads the word!

Excited to get my @blackboughpoems Christmas & Winter Anthology Volume 4 just now ❄️🎄

Looking forward to reading everyone's work including some dear friends. So happy to have a poem in here.
