An update on the new volunteers helping look after Fishlake Meadows nature reserve

A spring update on birds at Blashford Lakes nature reserve

Garganey are among the spring wildlife making an appearance at Blashford Lakes nature reserve

Or more prolonged outbreaks of rain! Recent days have certainly been making up for the rather dry winter.

Another rather wintry spring day.

It's been a busy few months creating suitable habitat in the Solent ahead of the terns' nesting season

It is often said that early spring flowers are mostly yellow and there is some truth in this, at Blashford Lakes just now it is certainly the most frequent flower colour.

One advantage of working outdoors for a lot of the time is that you do get to see a lot of wildlife.

Feeling like Spring finally!

It’s the end of winter for us. 28th of Feb officially means we down tools and stop cutting as the birds are busy setting up territories to breed and nest.
