Blithfield Reservoir Notice - Work today has commenced on improving the topography of Tad Bay. This is slightly ahead of the schedule that we were previously told hence the delayed announcement.The work will cause some disruption and we have been told that it may continue until next week.Afterwards some work will then continue in Blithe Bay.
It is also planned to extend an area of phragmites in the coming months.For this we would   appreciate anyone who could assist in planting out the new plugs.If you think that you may be able to help please contact me at blithfield@westmidlandbirdclub.org.uk Further details will be announced later as soon as I have a planting date.
