Reptile survey mats have been placed on Hackney Marshes. These will be used in an ongoing survey with LARG the main species that we will be on the lookout for is the Grass snake, but these mats will also be useful to monitor small mammals after the long term recovery project led by ReNature.

Restaurant boss halfwits should have no powers to chop down trees The felling of an ancient oak tree has understandablyΒ put local residents and conservationists on a collision course with the Toby Carvery restaurant chain.

With the successful recovery of small mammal species on Hackney Marshes predators have returned, including Kestrels, so we’ve put a kestrel box on a large standing log pile.

Please read @wildlifeian.bsky.social replies to this post. While we agree with what Alex says in the statement below. Using the press coverage our project has received to make a point is unhelpful. This was a three year project, mostly unpaid that has delivered fantastic results.

This photo won’t win any awards, but it’s great to see a couple of Common Frogs in the pond garden on London Fields. Another species that’s here thanks to the biodiversity project.

Councillors vote to approve controversial Spurs women’s academy at Whitewebbs Park Tottenham Hotspur captain Bethany England helps seal victory for Premier League club at Enfield Civic Centre despite emotional appeals by park users against the plans

Why aren't the female football players allowed to use the 17 pitches already constructed on the Green Belt on land formerly within the #LeeValleyPark behind Myddleton House?

This is a land grab by the billionaires.
