We’ve secured funding from @FCC_Communities to begin re-wetting work at Kilnhurst Ings this autumn! A big win for wading birds like snipe & lapwing, plus dragonflies & damselflies - especially after the driest spring in 100 years. https://t.co/UVws7t3yMO

Have you heard the nightjar’s eerie, engine-like “churr” this summer? These mysterious birds stir only at dusk, often heard but rarely seen. Spotting one is a magical moment - have you experienced it yet? 🐦✨

Plants like himalayan balsam & bracken can be a real problem on our nature reserves, creating mono-cultures that are poor habitat and outcompete native plants. So let's celebrate our volunteers who are out battling these villainous invasives every week! #InvasiveSpeciesWeek
