March is the month for so many creatures to really get their year underway. Following on from the adders we get the frogs massing in the ponds and reservoirs within the next 2 weeks
and these are followed soon after by the toads.
Eastern Moors staff tell me that the curlews have returned to the fields around the Moors and towards the end of the month they will be searching for decent nesting sites.
March also sees the lizards coming out of hibernation –
So much to see in just one month!! All we need is some reasonable weather.
