Happy New Year to all our supporters
January 1, 2025
May I wish you all a very Happy New Year for 2025.
It my have started with some poor weather conditions around the UK today, but things will hopefully be drier (if colder) by tomorrow.
Please do remember our feathered friends also need food and water - they HAVE to feed (and drink) to survive, and those foods left over from Christmas may indeed prove lifesavers - but please NO salted nuts, as they will make birds very poorly.
Hopefully the dawn photo of the Home Reserve I took in 2021 will resemble what we may see tomorrow morning!
Wishing you all the very best.
