Description
Imagine being able to see your favourite shop shimmering in the distance, full of delicious food to feed you and your family, but all roads leading to it are cut off. In a roundabout way, this is the problem our wildlife faces on a daily basis. With an ever increasing number of houses and roads being built, the pockets of habitat wildlife rely on are getting smaller. We are trying to change that by ensuring wildlife corridors are in place to connect habitats across the county - and you can help too!  On today's episode, we'll be looking at the problems fish face getting from A to B in our rivers, the wondrous journeys of brent geese, a wander around our Abbotts Hall Farm nature reserve and how you can get involved in our exciting new campaign, the #BigWildSeedSow for which, with your help, we are aiming to plant one million native wildflowers across the county.
