Already thinking ahead at Belvide!!

 We are just coming out of the winter feeding station period, and just entering into the breeding season......BUT it's never too early to be thinking about our main post-breeding site at Belvide Reservoir

A few weeks ago we joined with a working party to bring down much of the overgrown willows around our net rides to ensure they would be the correct height for our nets later in the year.

Meanwhile we have been refurbishing the steps that we use to get into some of our net sites. These can get pretty dangerous when the steps wear away and leave slippery slopes which would fail H+S inspections.

Really pleased about the steps to access net site 9

Kevin has also produced a revised ( and laminated!!) information panel for the entrance board to the reserve--and we think he's made a superb job of it.



Unfortunately it's really difficult to get the detail to show clearly, but we think you can get the drift. Actually, better still join the West Midland Bird Club and visit Belvide to see the poster in all its glory!
 
Only about 11 weeks to go before we start ringing at Belvide again.......can't wait!!
