Our 2012 holiday brochure has now been printed and should be winging its way out to those of you on our mailing list very soon. If you would like a copy, get in touch, of perhaps come along and see us at BirdFair next weekend! We'll be in our usual place in Marquee 3, next to The Wildlife Trusts.
Meanwhile, it's been a summer of hatching news...
- A pair of Whooper Swans have bred in the East Anglian fens, the first recorded occurence in Norfolk since 1928.
- Tree sparrows have nested on the Western Isles for the first time in 25 years.
- A Short-tailed Albatross chick has fledged from the first recorded nest outside Japan, having survived the Pacific tsunami in March.
- Spoon-billed Sandpiper news over the summer includes the first chicks to hatch in captivity and a significant new breeding population discovered in Chukotka.
