    Notes Reed encroachment is effecting this site. No habitat management has been done for the past 4 years. The area will in the near future be managed by Gaeteng Dept of Agriculture and Conservation (who manage Marievale Bird Sanctuary adjoining this reserve) and it is hoped that this change will result in managing the encroachment problem.
