GRIMSBY'S IMPRESSIVE NEW WETLAND 'NATURE RESERVE' IS PULLING IN THE BIRDS

 

Plaudits to North East Lincolnshire Council for establishing a mini wetland nature reserve on the Ainslie Street recreation area just a short walk from Grimsby town centre. It is already attracting little egrets, lesser black-backed gulls, mallards, moorhens and housemartins and could soon become a magnet for other species. According to naturalists, it is also a site to look out for dragonflies, damselflies, frogs and, at dusk, pipistrelle bats.
