Spring Migration is in full swing! Make sure to keep an eye out for all our new visitors such as the Swifts, Chiffchaffs and Swallows to name a few. Did you know that the Arctic Tern has the longest journey to reach us, travelling around 22,000 miles? - Impressive!

Wishing our Conscomm community a very Happy Easter 🐣
