Hatchings!


Friday 30th April and Spring has arrived at Rooksbury.
The meadow areas of the Reserve are yellow with flowering Cowslips and finally some newborns to see.










Coots on the main lake, ugly but you cant help going 'Ahhh' at something so small.
Moorhen chicks that look no larger than a black 'pingpong' ball. Its amazing how something so small can survive in a worlds where many things would consider it a quick snack!




The Cetti Warblers can still be heard, and occasionally seen.. as well as a pair of Sedge Warblers that are nesting on the edge of the lake. (better pic to follow, hopefully)
