Happy #worldrewildingday everyone! We’re excited by the start of Spring and the signs of recovery on the land including occupation of the newly formed ponds.

@PaulConnollyNI Thanks! No these aren’t lined. But the soil is quite heavy on clay so should be some natural retention, and we expect the level to move a bit with the level of rainfall.

[sunartfields @sunartfields]

One of two wildlife ponds that are being dug here this week, with several more to follow. Given the rainfall we’ve had of late they are almost full already! Might look like a muddy mess just now, but give it a couple of months and they will begin teeming with life.

Huge thanks to our friends and #volunteers we have now planted over 17,500 saplings since we first started about 14 months ago. This is an important intervention in a #rewilding plan to kick start the diversity in the fields. We can’t wait to see how this landscape evolves.

[sunartfields @sunartfields]

It was great to host you @AliDriverUK and share plans!

[sunartfields @sunartfields]

You’d think there wouldn’t be much to see out and about at this time of year, but look again, as we did with @MarkCocker2 on his fascinating guided walk here yesterday. The next Spring version is 10am Thurs 21st April - bookings via [email protected]
