Finding new species on Prince Freddy’s Meadows

www.lohp.org.uk/post/finding...

The image features an illustration of an unfolded map showing greenspaces and birds. Above this wording reads: Add your local greenspace to the Birds in Greenspaces Map.

1/ We need you to make sure your local Greenspace is included on our map ready for the Birds in Greenspaces survey! ➡️ app.bto.org/birds-in...

You can use the map to search for mapped greenspaces near you, suggest new sites and changes to existing ones if there's something we've missed!

A few interesting images from Prince Freddy’s Meadows. If anyone missed the first guided walk and would like to be added to the list for the next one, please email enquiries@lohp.org.uk . Possible date early March !
