A Wardens work is never done .... and an invasion of Hummingbirds

After spending untold hours erecting the fencing on Redwell and more recently attacking the vegetation with a tractor, the hide at Redwell now offers clear views over the whole of the Marsh for the Autumn migrant waders to come. Green and Common Sandpipers so far.The hide over the Broadwater has also been refurbished and vegetation cleared in front to improve the view.
