Volunteer Sunday

So Sunday means half a day with volunteer help on the reserve and we were out in the light rain. The morning was spent continuing to burn the previously collected up biomass. Apart from maintaining the fire the morning was also spent controlling the crowds using the hide close by as there had been a couple of bittern spotted on the pond and with a couple of large groups bittern fans on sight it proved a popular spot.

In the afternoon I continued to burn the lumber whilst trying to keep the numbers in the hide flowing and the queue outside minimum. There was the odd person that decided to try and sneak round the front by climbing a muddy bank but these had to be stopped both for their safety and also so they did not scar off the birds they were all there to see.
