East coast flooding - nature reserves

[RUDD]

I am surprised there has been very little news about just about every Nature reserve on the East Angling coast having flooded.

My local reserve at Trimley is still underwater - the sea breached the seawall and flooded the reserve but now the salt water has nowhere to go.

Ok - the waterfoul are all ok but what about all the other creatures from mammals to the tiny insects.

The eco system has taken a severe bashing,I suspect it is going to take a good many years for nature to set things right and hope I am wrong.

Unless the vegetation is really salt tolerant, it won't be just the animals that have a hard way to go and a long time to recover. Rising sea levels from the melting polar ice caps will likely make it more common than in the past.
