Did you know #WormwoodScrubs has Common Lizards? They are also called Viviparous Lizards due to the fact that they give birth to live young! @idverdeUK @Natures_Voice @ScrubsAction @TheScrubsLNR

Seems to be quite a widespread trend of vandaliam of signage asking for dogs to be kept on leads. We deal with this issue regularly at the Scrubs. Worth reading this thread!
Sadly a lot of our notices and signs around Wyming Brook, Fox Hagg and Redmires are regularly being vandalised. We recently replaced these ones only to find them slashed again - with a knife - within days. [1/7]

We’ve noticed this as well on our weekly transect surveys! Dubbing it the year of #HollyBlue
I’m predicting a bumper year for the #HollyBlue #butterfly this year. There are currently 4 flying at the same time in my #wildlifegarden. Promising signs for the second brood in August. Maximum in flight I’ve seen in this garden is 6, due to the abundance of Holly and Ivy. 😁🦋

It's been a wonderful day of wildlife spotting on the Scrubs: we've had reports of a nightingale, a lesser whitethroat, buzzards, blackcap and more. If you see any interesting plants/animals/fungi on the Scrubs, please tag us and DM the exact location!
