3 members plus myself enjoyed a very pleasant walk in the reserve with sunshine not too hot or cold.

The three hiders were visited and a colourful display of birds seen, several of which are shown in the photos, on the way to the first hide a large grey heron was seen on one of the lakes, with its image reflecting clearly in the water.#

I visited the fourth and saw greylag and Egyptian geese along with lapwings and black headed gulls.
