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

    Went out this weekend to a patch of heathland try and photograph these little beauties. The overcast weather seemed to make them not very obliging and it was difficult to get very close, so I opted for some ‘in habitat’ style shots, which I quite like. Not bad for a first go with these tiny…

    The end of May marks the end of my Big 30 project, a rather ambitious undertaking designed to help me get out and do as much photography as possible. 30 varied, unusual, or amazing wildlife photos in a year – 30 photos for my 30th year. The project had its ups and downs, but has…

  • Wayland Wood

    Visited Wayland Wood in Norfolk for the first time yesterday. The wood at this time of year is filled with birdsong and bluebells, and yesterday, the patter of raindrops on newly unfurled leaves. The dull, damp conditions would have been great for close up photography, but an annoying little breeze made it very difficult. When…
