Spring is on the way! RSPB Lakenheath Fen have a number of events planned during March including forays, a fens ghost walk and treasures of the moth trap - all available to book now. So why not take a look and see if you're tempted along! events.rspb.org.uk/lakenheathfen 📸 Illuvis @ Pixabay

Today's #TreeTuesday is a special one. We hosted a community planting event on #ParkersPiece #Cambridge to plant 12 elm #trees (Ulmus 'New Horizon') - a hybrid of Japanese & Siberian elms. Some of the 33 new trees being planted on this iconic open space in the heart of the city.

The #StateofHedgehogs report shows a mixed picture for this much loved fellow nocturnal species. The 11 bat species monitored under the National Bat Monitoring Programme also show some initial encouraging signs of recovery but only in some places bats.org.uk/news/2021/05/p…
