24/05/2025  9.00 - 13.00  Blashford North  Bramble trim. Some nettles trimmed but needs a 'team' approach now. Branches hanging over boardwalk trimmed back a bit. Likely to need a more extensive trim in the near future. All hides OK.

Only three adult Lapwings seen from the Hanson screen, but view not great with growing vegetation. 2 very active/protective Lapwings seen from Tern Hide and two juveniles also seen there. Sand Martins active at Goosander but no activity seen at the Swift Tower.

4 ponies seen in section 1, on the western shore.
