We have some great events coming up on the Nature Reserve just outside the Peterborough. With the sighting of a young Hobby at the Reserve this week, the air heaving with dragonflies, not to mention the amphibians and reptiles that thrive on the site, this is a great time of year to visit.
Hampton Nature Reserve Volunteer and Froglife Trustee Frank Clark was thrilled to spot a pair of the birds of prey on the site during one of his morning visits. He was even lucky enough to get close enough to a newly fledged Hobby to take a great photo. The birds are breeding on the site, which is really exciting news.
