Have you spotted any young brent geese so far this winter? 🤔 If you see any dark-bellied brent geese on your walks, look out for the juveniles who are missing the white ring around their neck. Our rangers haven't seen many so far this year, so keep your eyes peeled for them.

The Solent is a rare gem: an internationally renowned wildlife hub and maritime centre. But its habitats and species have been depleted. Now, a new project is restoring this precious marine world....
Can we restore 20% of Europe's degraded land and sea in just six years? 🤔 That’s one of the challenges the Endangered Landscapes & Seascapes Programme has taken up. So far, they’ve helped to preserve over 250K hectares of land and sea. This is how they're doing it:
