Radley Lakes - future ?


Received by email, is notice of this important step in the development of part of the Radley Lakes area as a people friendly wildlife area. With so many birders birding and enjoying both the minority 'protected' area and majority unprotectd areas of old pits at Radley, this is important for the continued future of decent birding along the lines of White-rumped Sand, Spotted Crakes, Glaucous etc..
Worth coming just for the drinks and eats !
