Share your Favourite Sightings from Summer and Autumn 2020
The newsletter team are publishing your fave sightings over the summer and autumn of 2020, in the autumn edition to be out on 1 October 2020. We would love to know what your favourites are - animal, bird, insect, fish, view of any part of the reserve, whatever you love about Cromwell Bottom LNR. If you have a photo then fabulous, please include it but no matter if you don't. Just need your name (first name only if you prefer) and the month taken, and of course what it is.
