Hog rescue number 2

Thanks to Ryan for rescuing a Hedgehog and leaving it at our main store, in a box. Yesterday evening we went around and placed the hedgehog into one of our warm and dry hedgehog hibernation boxes (with dog food kindly donated ) in a quiet part of the reserve

Next year (2020) we are looking at creating and adding a number of wildlife videos, to our YouTube page.

We would welcome any visitors suggestions on what they would like to see

Earlier in the year, we started a new project called "Way To Go". Around 70 new direction arrows and feature signs have been put up around the reserve.

Our thanks to "The Tuesday Gang" and Steve Songhurst (Warden) for taking the time to create and put them up.

Great Work!
