Grey Heron - Ardea cinerea

Photographed at Magor Marsh SSSI Gwent Wildlife Trust, Wales, UK

Please can you sign this petition to stop the proposed M4 over the Gwent Levels. I feel strongly about this because it is a place I visit a lot. The damage to the Gwent Levels along with Magor Marsh and the Newport Wetlands will be irreparable!


Please look at my website bobswildlife.co.uk. There is a photo of a Common Sandpiper,  and  the Mute Swan by Dave Key in the 'Guest photographer'

  7. Lovely shot Bob.
    Signed the petition. Our wildlife just doesn't seem to matter to our governments these days. It's all about profit.
