Story

Sunnyside Scrape is a small but important wetland in the south of Poole Harbour owned by Natural England. Over the last five years weve been helping develop and enhance the site for passage and breeding waders as well as good numbers of over-wintering Jack Snipe and Woodcock. During the winter of 2019/20 we began our popular Sunnyside ringing demos which were a fundraiser to raise money for a new viewing screen to be built and replace the dilapidated old one. We were due to host more ringing demos during the 2020/21 winter period but sadly Covid:19 prevented them from happening. This means that were sadly now just short of our target to get the screen completed.

Can you help us raise the last £450 needed to get a new and better viewing screen installed at Sunnyside which in recent years has attracted more and more visitors, many of whom have been treated to great views of Little Ringed Plover, Lapwing, Hobby, Wood Sandpiper and even White Stork. Thank you
