RSPB Arne
Today marks the first day of my two weeks at the Arne RSPB reserve. The reserve is situated just across Poole harbour from Poole, and it seems a bit odd to be standing in an area where all around me I can see heather or trees, and yet I can still hear the rumble of traffic far in the distance. Anyway, here are some shots from my first day…
-
- One of the first things I notice is that there are lots of wood ants on the reserve, which is fantastic
-
- Arne is a heathland habitat on a sandy bed
-
- These spiders are awesome, uk funnel webs, Agelena labyrinthica, I think
-
- There are plenty of Gatekeepers about
-
- and some Godwits (I think most of these are black tailed)
-
- And here is one of the places that the springwatch team looked for raft spiders. I can’t see any today.
