Suffolk Wildlife Trust needs our help!

ByDawn

Quick post for all you locals out there, Suffolk Wildlife Trust wants to buy Knettishall Heath. They’ve already secured a grant from the Heritage Lottery Fund, but they need to raise £100,000 by the end of January to complete the purchase.

Suffolk Wildlife Trust looks after my local reserve – Redgrave and Lopham Fen, and they do a really fantastic job there.

It would be great to see Knettishall Heath managed as a nature reserve, there’s already so much wonderful wildlife there, and plenty of great walks too.

If you’d like to help them safeguard Knettishall Heath for ever, you can donate here: http://www.justgiving.com/Knettishall

    You may have noticed from my Facebook page that I have had the most amazing luck to find a Starling murmuration on my way home from work. If you’ve never witnessed a murmuration before, I strongly suggest you go and see one next Winter as it is one of the most enthralling spectacles in the…

    Ok, I admit it. Lizards. My favourite species to photograph.

    It’s that time of year when you might start seeing some strange new birds in your garden. Newly fledged youngsters often look very different from their parents. This baby Starling for example looks totally unrelated to the dark, glossy, iridescent adult birds. Yet they fly together in formation, adults leading their offspring to the feeder…

    Usual Sunday morning chores interrupted today when I noticed a queen Buff-tailed Bumblebee sitting on the kitchen windowsill, she must have got stuck indoors the previous evening. She dived into the offered teaspoon of honey, allowing me a photo opportunity. Many people regard bees rather warily, but they are fascinating and important creatures. Bumblebee’s are…

  • A stroll around Strumpshaw

    Visited RSPB Strumpshaw Fen today. Had a wander along the meadow trail, and found this Pheasant sitting on a fence. Sometimes you don’t have to fill the frame… Also in the meadow, some lovely Ragged Robin. Difficult to photograph, as it was a bit windy out there. Then, on the way back, the star of…

  • Autumn Fen

    A stunning morning on the Fen, a crisp frosty start and delicious golden light. The Konik ponies look so at home here, they were warming up in the sun at the edge of the wood. On in search of the Bearded Tits, but all was quiet in the reedbed. I can’t help feeling a bit…
