It's World Otter Day!
Have you spotted signs of otters on the reserve?
You may see paw prints in soft mud, otter spraint, or if you are lucky you could see an otter itself!
Keep your eyes peeled along the river near the wader scrape hides.
#worldotterday #pensthorpesightingsLook out for two of our longhorn cattle ๐ฎ, which are now grazing alongside the river in Rushy Marsh.

Our largest bumblebee! We could listen to @thewillowtit all day ๐
Itโs #WorldBeeDay today so felt appropriate to share three key facts you should know about these incredible creatures:
๐ Nearly 90% of wild plants and 75% of leading global crops depend on animal pollination including oilseed rape, apples, beans, courgettes, tomatoes and strawberries.
๐ If you see a bee struggling either gently place the bee onto a bee-friendly flower or give the bee a drop of 50/50 white sugar and water mix
๐ There is no life without bees, so try to plant lots of bee-friendly plants like heathers daisies and other wildflowers- however much space you have.
Have you seen a bumblebee yet?
