So many exciting plans to help #naturerecovery using #ecosystemengineers

[Kent Wildlife Trust @KentWildlife]

#WaterBuffalo can act as cost-effective maintenance for #wetlands by grazing and wallowing.

We are looking to introduce water buffalo 🐃 to #HamFen with the help of @EcoverUK. RETWEET to help win this grant! #KentWildlifexEcover

The moment a Buzzard was shot on the edge of an #RSPB Nature Reserve in North Kent. They're offering a £1000 reward for info leading to a conviction. @Natures_Voice @RSPBNews @bbcsoutheast @ChrisGPackham

The climate crisis means that we are seeing more damage from flooding. Government must invest now in natural solutions. Bogs, moors, woodlands and wetlands act as giant sponges, absorbing water and slowing it down. Let's protect and rebuild these places. #FloodActionWeek 🌎💦

This is #DevilsFingersFungus! This smelly, strange-looking #fungus hatches from a slimy, gelatinous ‘egg’. As it grows, the tentacle-like arms start to protrude. It smells attracts insects to its arms where the spores are found. The spores are then spread by the visiting insects.

If you're a regular visitor to Pegwell and you love our Koniks who do such a good job of conservation grazing for us, please help spread the word that feeding and petting these semi-wild ponies can lead to serious illness or injury. Taking photos is fine, though! Thanks!

Highland cattle taking it very easy after a hard week grazing the coarse grasses at our Holborough Marsh Nature Reserve. The marsh is left in perfect condition for the arrival of winter wildfowl. Stay safe everyone! #FridayFeeling @KentWildlife

Did you know? In total we have surveyed nearly 17,000 ash trees across our estate to understand the effects ash dieback is having.

Another lovely sunny October day, walked the top loop @KentWildlife Cromer Woods. A Speckled Wood still on the wing was a surprise. Blackbird x3, Woodpigeon x2 & Jackdaw (heard) were the only birds. Some fantastic fungi now beginning to show.

[Kent Wildlife Trust @KentWildlife]

Our nature reserve with the largest number of ash trees identified as showing signs of dieback is Queendown warren, which has 2,011 infected trees. 183 of these trees are large ash trees showing signs of severe dieback.

Some wonderful bark in @KentWildlife West Blean and Thornden Woods reserve. Pine and birch I think. Great to see lots of volunteers working too and fencing for rewilding. @WildlifeTrusts

[Evan Bowen-Jones @EcoLlogik]

Watched #DancingWithTheBirds on @Netflix last night with the kids. Fantasic. They loved it. The scene featuring #MacGregors_Bowerbird is (dare I say) arguably even better than the famous Attenborough #Lyre_bird chainsaw mimicry sequence. https://t.co/qbCKAVuTWD

One small thing you can do today to help the environment! 🌍
The planning system should protect our wildlife and beautiful green spaces - but it's not. Add your comments to the Government's consultation. Every comment will make a BIG difference. ⬇️

"We need to learn how to work with nature, rather than against it." David Attenborough is going to tell us how.

What a beautiful piece of art! Great to see #EcosystemEngineers used as a muse. #Beaver next?

[Kent Wildlife Trust @KentWildlife]

Have you seen this? Over the last few days, Mark @AtmStreetart has been taking part in the #LondonMuralFestial and has been painting this remarkable #EuropeanBison! 🦬

Inspired by #WilderBlean, he decided to paint a bison to showcase the idea of wilding to a whole new audience.

[PaulHadaway @PaulHadaway3]

Wilding #WilderKent coupled with large grazing animals in woodlands #WilderBlean & the reversion of land through natural regeneration & wetting #WilderCarbon - the #naturebasedsolutions trinity that @KentWildlife are proud to be leading on for a true #NatureRecoveryNetwork
