Surveying wildlife at Dawley Hamlets Local Nature Reserve and highlighting the importance of iRecord
Join Telford & Wrekin Council for a quick glimpse into an event with Buglife at Dawley Hamlets Local Nature Reserve as part of Get the Marches Buzzing! Buglife were joined by local volunteers for an introduction to pollinator and plant identification and shown how to upload wildlife sightings to iRecord. This will help increase the number of records for pollinators and other wildlife in Telford, hopefully helping to conserve their habitats for them. If you’d like to know more about iRecord - irecord.org.uk/help/user-guide
With thanks to Telford & Wrekin Council for allowing us to share their video.

    These gorgeous spiders are responsible for ridding me of my spider fear! But I had no idea they were found in England, amazing. I've only been aware of the Gandanameno from Africa and the ones in Greece. The more the better far as I'm concerned! What an amazing person this man is to be breeding them in captivity and then setting them back into the wild. How can you not fall in love with those faces? I'm feeling emotional now. Thank you so much! 💖💖

    Brilliant message, I have a passion for insects, particularly beetles, it's amazing how much you can spot when you take the time to look properly, , nature is so giving, it's time to give something back. I'm rewilding our garden, the results have been very rewarding.🌲🌲

  • @jhjhjh242
    @jhjhjh242 2 месяца назад

    A great message. I'm rewilding more of our country garden, the number of insects last year was quite staggering, particularly on the wild ox eye daisies. We've had oil beetles and lesser stag beetles to name a few.
