Over at our Langley quarry the team were investigating a screen breakdown when they found a Wagtail nest with baby chicks tweeting away. Due to the nest’s location and the protected status the team were unable to commence with screen repairs and needed to wait until the young chicks fledged.

Well done to the team for abiding by the UK Wildlife and Countryside Act of 1981 which makes it illegal to disturb, damage, or destroy a wild bird’s nest while it’s being built or in use, as well as intentionally disturbing nesting birds.
