The species is protected by British law, making it an offence to even photograph them without a licence. Robin Harley, countryside area manager for Bournemouth Christchurch and Poole Council, said: "It is a great privilege to play a part in looking after this amazing and important place but it would not be possible without the support of a dedicated team of staff and volunteers, who give many hours of their time to the reserve."
