Do you love nature – walking in the woods and looking for wildlife?
Here you can add in the comments sightings of any wildlife you’ve seen – where and what. Hopefully, you can add pictures to share.
Tell us what you’ve seen, a description of where and who you are. This will all help towards providing the best environments to meet the needs of our wildlife and the members of our park.
Upper & Lower Woods
Even a child knows how valuable the forest is. The fresh, breathtaking smell of trees. Echoing birds flying above that dense magnitude. A stable climate, a sustainable diverse life and a source of culture. Yet, forests and other ecosystems hang in the balance, threatened to become croplands, pasture, and plantations.
There has been a red kite spotted in the area. Who will be the first to post a picture of them?
Please note that comments will not appear straight away as they have to be moderated.
