Lough Erne Wildfowlers' Council & affiliated club Devenish Wildfowlers joined the @LoughErneLP Big BIG Litter Pick today. Always disappointing that it is necessary to remove so much rubbish from #LoughErne
Always a good morning when the grasshopper warblers return to #Fermanagh
This lapwing was tagged as part of our new Fallow Plot study. It was a retrap, ringed as a chick by @RyanABurrell during his PhD on lapwing back in 2019, on the same plot. The data will help us improve arable nesting lapwing options as part of this @NaturalEngland funded study.
You've all been warned, so don't complain whem the predictable happens in a few years... Having sad that, it's late but not too late. We know what is needed: good habitat and predation management. Only in combination can low population numbers of Curlew successfully recover.

The common snipe is a small wader that are present in good numbers across the reserve in winter, but seeing them can be tricky as they are beautifully camouflaged. Watch for them along the entrance track roosting in grass or feeding in the rills sticky edges #WaderWednesday
