I was at Three Owls Wood in Tarleton today, having collected three carriers-full of rehabilitated birds from Meltham Wildlife Rescue for release on this reserve.
Just as I placed the baskets on the ground, a small green frog jumped up from the floor onto the front of the carrier. To my surprise there was also a much larger toad nearby too....so, despite the drought, our amphibians are still thriving on this well-stocked nature.
The birds all took off safely, and populated many of the trees around the reserve.
