A new permanent barrier is being installed to stop toads from crossing a busy road on the outskirts of Henley.
Volunteers with the @henleytoads.bsky.social are putting up 250m of plastic fencing to halt the amphibians.

This winter scene shows a snowy garden teeming with life. A Blue Tit perches near a nest box, offering shelter, while a suet feeder hangs nearby for energy. Bright red berries on bare branches provide natural food, and logs below offer cosy hiding spots. A bird drinks from an ice-free dish, and a Blackbird forages on a cleared patch, highlighting simple ways to support wildlife in winter.
It's cold! Here's a few ways to make life easier for wildlife during this chilly snap and through the winter...
Help share these ideas! ❄️

100,000s of UK ponds have been filled in over recent decades. Even a small pond in your garden could help wildlife like frogs, toads, water boatmen, damselflies, dragonflies, insects, swallows, swifts, hedgehogs & foxes 🐸
