Welcome to the Quantock Hills National Landscape - the new name for our designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
River and water is high at the reserve at the moment. Lots of debris. The little stream to cross into the neighbouring field is almost over welly height and would be too slippery to jump! #takecare

If you're tidying the garden, remember to check for #hedgehogs & other #wildlife before mowing long grass, disturbing wild patches, or turning compost heaps, as they are ideal places for a #hedgehog's nest!

These rare and less common bumblebees can be seen in September, but you better hurry! ⏱️
This month, many bumblebee nests will naturally come to an end and new queens will settle down to hibernate over the winter.

The phone rings all day long.
Folk reporting hedgehogs seen out in the day.
Most casualties are just babies.
And every single one is suffering from starvation.
The callers are shocked.
They think hedgehogs love slugs, which are plentiful.
Please help educate.

Looks like the first feed for our Peregrine chick is a starling. Also signs that 2 of the other 3 eggs are starting to hatch.

Attract insect-eating birds like blue tits to your garden by growing nectar-rich plants - and help pollinators at the same time! Blue tits are one of the later arrivals to the dawn chorus - hear its song here: bit.ly/3LzSWs0
