Signs requesting co-operation from dog walkers have been re-vamped as more effort is put into keeping this very public area as free of disturbance as possible. Currenly upto 500 brent geese are regualry loafing around the sandflat in addition to a number of warders and gulls. The birds need to conserve their energy and so the less disturbed they are the better it is for them. It is also rather enjoyable for bird watchers and local residents to see these small but attractive geese.
