Hello

Hi, I would like to introduce myself as the new contract assistant warden at Loch of Kinnordy. My role is also split between Loch Leven too. It is great to see so many wonderful photos and sightings posted on here from our beautiful reserve. We desperately need photos to post on the RSPB Kinnordy page also, so if anyone has any they wouldn't mind being shared on our page too please contact me.

I also hope that everyone appreciates that the RSPBs blog is a light hearted round up of reserve news, meant to be easy reading for all ages and backgrounds. Hence why complex issues such as predation and why the black headed gull colony has nearly disappeared are not addressed on there. Loch of Kinnordy is a complex site to manage, and as my first paid contract with the RSPB I hope that you can all appreciate the learning curve it is for me and be patient and understanding I can assure you all that I am doing my best to raise funds for the reserve as I too love it and think it deserves a bit of extra care. Any fundraising ideas, and help to do so are greatly appreciated.

p.s. I will check if I am allowed to share the bioblitz species list once it is complete (cant see why not but you never know), then I will either share it on our blog, or set up a mailing list. Apologies to anyone that missed the advertising for the event, any ideas on where to advertise future events are welcome - I am still learning things as I go along I'm afraid.
