Fantastic news for the 'Last Ent' of Affric! 👏
Glen Affric's lone wych elm tree has 35 new seedlings for company - thanks to a propagation collaboration between Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh Forestry and Land Scotland and UHI.
Good luck to the new recruits! 🌱🌳

Wow – over 75k views on our video documenting the transformation of the Beltie Burn in Aberdeenshire! Have you seen it?
Sit back, relax, and be inspired by the story of a river restored from drainage stream to wildlife-rich wetland: youtube.com/watch?v=tWCQVU…
Dee Partnership
Last month at Dundreggan Rewilding Centre, keen aspen growers learned about new propagation techniques. Aspen is native to Scotland, supporting a wealth of biodiversity, but has become incredibly rare. Find out more about this captivating tree species: scotlandbigpicture.com/painting-scotl…
Restoring native woodland in landscapes grazed by cattle & deer can be challenging without the use of fencing. Across the #Northwoods Rewilding Network, we’re using seed islands – small enclosures protecting species such as aspen – to promote growth before the fence is removed.
Delighted to receive support from The National Lottery Heritage Fund Scotland to attract business investment into nature restoration projects across Scotland, supporting more people to engage with nature through recreational & educational activities💚

🪓 The axeman cometh
🦫 Won’t be long till we start beaver tours but the 🦫 have… ahem… made it a little tricky to reach the seating area (see pic 2).
🌳 A few quick cuts with the chainsaw & problem solved.
🍃 Great to see so many gnawed trees coppicing too. #livingwithbeavers
Nature - our life support system - is in trouble. But it’s not too late to act. Please sign the #RewildingNation Charter, calling for Scotland to become the world’s first Rewilding Nation - offering hope for nature, climate and people.

It’s #InternationalBeaverDay
🦫’s deadwood filled wetlands create habitat for many species, hold water in floods & drought & provide a breaker during wildfires. As climate change intensifies we’ll need 🦫 more & more. Let’s raise a glass to them. They matter more than we know.
On #InternationalBeaverDay , we're thinking about a discovery made by Flo in our film Why not Scotland?:
There are now over 200 beavers living within Vienna's city limits. If this coexistence can happen in Vienna, then Why Not Scotland?
