Lots of bramble, willow, and birch removal at #HyndburnsNatureReserves in January!

Thank you to our #volunteers for helping us remove this scrub to benefit ground flora and keep paths clear!

Our #HyndburnsNatureReserves volunteers were out on-site thinning birch to benefit heath species.

It is currently quite magical-looking at Peel Park & the Coppice LNR, with icicles adoring the waterfalls and great views of the landscape!

'Messy nature' FTW!

We can't wait to see our meadows get messy again with a huge range of wildflowers and pollinators. 🌼🐝

Building a clay bank for the wetlands!

Hedgerow planting, woodland glade making, and wetland bank building! It has been a busy start to the new #HyndburnsNatureReserves project as we continue with conservation activities at Peel Park & the Coppice LNR.
