@froglifers @NaturalEngland 🔬Would you like to get involved? We’re looking for volunteers to help us conduct a range of ecological surveys across the Forest’s ponds from March next year. Register your interest here:

@froglifers ✅ The ponds we began with last month are filling up nicely. Works will continue elsewhere in the forest in summer 2026. You can follow along with Project Pondscape here: https://t.co/S7NJZMpY8x.    This project is part of a @naturalengland funded District Level Licencing scheme.

Our favorite piping hot hosting hack (literally) ♨️

@froglifers Through Project Pondscape, in partnership with @froglifers we are carefully reprofiling some of the Forest’s most important wildlife ponds so they hold more water for longer and creating new ponds nearby. Giving wildlife like great crested newts time to complete their lifecycles.

@froglifers 🌡️This year, many of #EppingForest’s ponds struggled after prolonged periods of drought. Sadly, it’s not a one-off, ponds also dried up in 2022. Drier summers and a falling water table leave the challenge of helping these vital habitats navigate a changing climate. 📷 N Chadwick

@froglifers 🌍This is amplified where ponds form networks across a landscape, creating a “pondscape.” Interconnected waters allow animals to move between ponds as conditions change, making the whole system more resilient.  #ponds #pondscape

A Floriday is what happens when “Why not?” meets “Why wait?”

💧#Ponds are #biodiversity powerhouses, providing habitat, breeding grounds, and drinking spots for an astonishing range of life. Ranging from amphibians and reptiles to birds, mammals, and countless plants and insects.  #EppingForest @froglifers 📷's by Andrew Wakefield

@savebutterflies By recording location and numbers we can better understand how they're faring and identify key breeding areas to safeguard them during our management to help ensure the continued recovery of this beautiful species. #EppingForest #Butterfleis #UKBMS50 #BrownHairstreak

@savebutterflies 🦋#Butterfly season never really ends. This week we're looking for Brown hairstreaks they've recently re-appeared in #EppingForest after a long absence. They fly high in the canopy so it's hard to detect the adults but the eggs can be seen on blackthorn branches in winter.

@savebutterflies 🌳Can you commit to a weekly Forest walk between April and September? 🔎Have experience identifying species, or interested in learning how? 🔗Register your interest to join #EppingForest's ecological monitoring volunteers in 2026 by completing this form.

🔬#Butterfly data collected by our ecological monitoring volunteers is already informing our #conservation work in #EppingForest and feeding into the UK Butterfly Monitoring Scheme (#UKBMS) - one of the longest running #insect monitoring schemes in the world. @savebutterflies

You may spot familiar faces from #EppingForest in this short film celebrating 50 years of #butterfly surveys! #UKBMS50 (Well done Will, Ellie, Les and Sergio for representing volunteers and staff who’ve walked Forest transects in 2025 and over the years!) https://t.co/R0mCEo8szL

It was wonderful to meet so many passionate naturalists, from novices to experts, excited to help us survey the #EppingForest’s incredible wildlife in 2026. 🌿🦋🐸🪲 Want to get involved? Visit our volunteering page  https://t.co/1dgFmo4Rfu

AI is reshaping energy demand, and we’re ready. Our Chairman & CEO Mike Wirth shares how we’re powering the future.

Great to connect with old friends and new at the Essex Field Club Annual Exhibition & Social! We loved: ✅ Sharing insights about our 2026 ecological monitoring. ✅ Hearing about the work happening for nature across Essex. ✅ Exploring the club's fascinating historical archive.

We're working to extend their lives with Britain's most ambitious ancient tree restoration programme. Since 2003, over 650 trees have received expert care, but this bespoke work can cost over £1,000 per tree.  #ancientbeech #beech #trees #ancienttrees #eppingforest

Did you know the Forest is home to more than 80% of all the UK’s ancient beech trees? Since traditional pollarding ended in the 19th century they have grown top-heavy. Leaving them majestic, but vulnerable to storms, putting their futures in doubt.

Meteorological autumn ends today. 🍂 Have you enjoyed Epping Forest's spectacular autumnal colours? Twenty thousand ancient #beech #pollards, their crowns burnished gold, put on quite a show!   #NationalTreeWeek #tree #autumn #ancienttree

🗺️ Cleaner air benefits all of us; people, plants, and the places we love like London’s green lung. #EppingForest #CleanAir #CleanAir Day #NatureRecovery #BiodiversityCrisis #London #Essex #ProtectWhatYouLove

🌳 #EppingForest cleans our air by intercepting 81.7 tonnes of harmful airborne particulates every year. But even the Forest has its limits. When nitrogen levels exceed critical thresholds, nature’s ability to recover is overwhelmed.

🌿 This #NationalTreeWeek we’re spotlighting a hidden threat to the Forest's trees: nitrogen pollution. 📊 Excess nitrogen harms plants, soils, and entire ecosystems: shifting the balance of species, weakening trees, and altering the soil chemistry. https://t.co/cGGxIpCxIc
