The natural and not so natural history of the Ribble Estuary National Nature Reserve.
A talk by Dave Mercer, Senior Reserve Manager for Natural England
The Ribble Estuary is one of the largest single river saltmarshes in the country and one of the most important sites on the East Atlantic flyway for migratory birds. This talk will take you on a tour of this special place to learn about its wildlife, the people managing it now and how the people of the past shaped it.
