NORTH East Lincolnshire Council has today put out an unexpected - but welcome - plea on behalf of the birds and other wildlife that live within its jurisdiction:
"The Easter holidays are almost upon us and everyone is gearing up for the start of the season in Cleethorpes.
"From enjoying a wander along the prom to sighting some of nature’s most beautiful birds along the saltmarsh.
"With its sand dunes, saltmarsh and tidal mud flats, Cleethorpes is a protected Site of Special Scientific Interest and provides vital habitat for hundreds of thousands of wading birds, rare plants and sea life.
"Always keep a safe distance away and do not disturb.
"Remember this is their habitat, their home and we are the visitors."
The appeal concludes: "If you have concerns for an animal or bird’s health or safety, you can report it to the resort management team on 01472 323356."
