THE RSPB is planning to extend its Leighton Moss reserve near Silverdale by buying a haymeadow to benefit such birds as linnets and grey partridges.

And to help meet the cost, it is organising its fourth cross-Morecambe Bay walk, led by the Queen's Guide to the Sands, Cedric Robinson.

It will be on Saturday, August 26 from Arnside promenade. Details from Sue Barber on 01484-861148.
