BIRD BOXES BEING USED ON RESERVE

Members of the Friends of the Queslett Nature Reserve along with our resident expert Dr Stephan Bodner paid a visit to view a number of the Bird boxes put up last year on the Queslett Nature Reserve and it has proved they are a success.
Many of these boxes have been located off the beaten track for obvious reasons and this has helped the bird life in the reserve to be able to use them.
Most of the boxes appear to be occupied and and amongst the birds recorded as nesting are Blue tits, Stock doves and Owls.It is hoped as the boxes mature there will be even more species nesting next year.
