Talk: The return of Common Cranes to Lincolnshire
Gibraltar Point National Nature Reserve ,
Gibraltar Road, Skegness, PE24 4SU
About the event
Back in 2020, when everyone was staying at home, a pair of cranes discovered a quiet Willow Tree Fen and started their nest, successfully fledged a chick, the first in Lincolnshire for over 400 years. But this was just the beginning, with the cranes becoming a regular sight since then.
Join David as he takes us through the amazing work done to turn the arable farmland of Willow Tree Fen to wet fen, the wildlife that has returned, the cranes' highs and lows over the last six years, and the amazing team of Crane Watch Volunteers who bring the amazing story to life for visitors.
