Still wet

 And getting deeper. More flows over path as reported by others. Environment Agency levelz are reported steady but at the top of their range. 3 runners, 1 walker, fair amount if birdsong. And actually quite a good sunny morning.

Sunday 8th February

Some walkers, lots of runners.  One maintaining a fast pace and loudly informing people that he would be passing them.  I'm sure he thinks he is polite.

Lots of standing water on the east side.

A bird feeder with fatballs in a tree at ///trickster.storm.painter  I assume the WT didn't put it there.

Friday 6th February

​No visitors on site this morning just lots of birds again and lots of water across the paths. 

Thursday 5th February

All quiet, lots of water. no litter, two bird watchers, two general visitors and one young lad walking with a fishing rod. I let him know that fishing was not allowed, he was very polite about it but I suspect once I'd gone he continued to find somewhere to fish. 

Wednesday 4th February

 Lovely sunny and very mild morning. How lucky am I?!

Lots of bird song and several people out enjoying the reserve. River levels high but not actually overtopping. Lots of puddles especially by the pond junction but manageable to get round.

No litter!

Damp underfoot.

 Much the same as last week. Not much litter but plenty of birdsong. 1 runner. Bit of water over paths. Main channel high - ish

Sunday 1st May

Quiet.  One polite runner, one walker, one family letting their small child balance precariously near the water by the sluice for a photo.
