Greetings from a windy moor! We've had a brilliant restoration season with our lovely volunteers. The last plug plant went into the ground last week and now we've left the moors to allow ground nesting birds to have space and peace while they breed #GreatNorthBog Severn Trent
We're proud and happy to be doing what we can - along with our partners, funders, landowner and managers - to improve habitat for these beautiful birds. Their haunting call is one of the great joys of working in the uplands.
