🪓 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?

Our #Northwoods land partners commit to a set of rewilding principles, such as exploring opportunities for recreation, education and employment within local communities. Comrie Croft is a shining example of how rewilding can benefit both nature and people. bit.ly/3NQmhyn
