Yesterday was one of those truly special @RSPBMinsmere days.

Close flybys of both Bitterns and Marsh Harriers, an extremely obliging Dartford Warbler, and a brief distant Ringtail Hen Harrier sighting just after sunset! 😲

However, a reminder that Minsmere is at huge risk from the expansion of Sizewell.

In this photo you can see 2 Marsh Harriers flying over the current site, Sizewell B and how close it is.

Sizewell C will be built right up to Minsmeres Border.

That means this level of construction works for a whopping 10 years directly on the border of a hugely important site for conservation.
