If anyone spots any dead or sick birds DO NOT touch them but please report them to the council via 0300 131 2 131, providing as many details as possible.
It’s really important people also:
✅ Adhere to any cordons in place
✅ Keep dogs on leads
❌ Do not pick up any feathers

Please don't release balloons! Their impact on the environment is tragic 😢
Voluntary Rangers found these on a recent patrol. Thankfully they no longer pose danger to wildlife or look unsightly.
Be safe and care for this special place💚
