The rangers have restored the natural barriers in the Woodland Walk - an essential conservation tool that is used to support soil, plants, and biodiversity 🐞
By keeping the barrier intact, we all help give the plants and wildlife time to recover and thrive in this special corner of the park 🍃
The plants are in bloom and the park is looking wonderful in the sun☀️💮
Visited us recently and got some good shots? We want to see! Tag or DM us your springtime photos 📸👏
Happy Easter from the team (and the animals!) 🐣🐐 We hope you're having a lovely long weekend 🌟
It may be April fool's, but we aren't kidding about with our animals - they have new homes! Not only were all the fences redone recently, fresh turf has been laid ready for the spring and summer months 🐐🦆🌻

Habitat piles are popping up in our woodland... but why?🧐
These natural barriers control the movement of visitors, and are put in place to reduce soil compaction. By minimising it our team are allowing the woodland understorey to regenerate🏵️

4 new bird boxes are up! A range of sizes, the smaller diameter holes are perfect for blue tits, whilst the larger ones can become home for wrens and blackbirds🐦⬛

This #IDWGS, we heard from our Ranger, Louis, about science in open spaces:
"When you're dealing with nature, you need patience, and to show it love. Women have skills the sector needs... I'm currently monitoring invertebrates to understand whether the woodland areas are ecologically effective."
