A stones throw from Reading this "country park" is very popular with walkers and Mums at weekends and during school holidays but still gives up a day list of over sixty and regularly turns up interesting migrants. Of late the previously irregular winter bittern has been recorded every month of the year - a testament to the work of the conservation group!
