It's #WorldCurlewDay ! 💚
From their iconic curved bill to their bubbling call, it's hard not to fall in love with these graceful waders.
With Curlews in crisis, we're working tirelessly to ensure the future of this special, yet threatened, species.

Busy this #WorldCurlewDay , preparing for the arrival of 2024’s Curlew eggs, part of The Lowland Curlew Recovery Project. We hope birds reared & fledged here will be site faithful, returning to breed in the vast habitat of mudflats, saltmarsh & wet grassland at Elmley & Swale NNR
“That the voice might somehow channel something raw and elemental. Something true. Something from the gut. And in doing so, begin to tell a tiny fragment of the story… To be tied by blood and breath to every living thing. To be windblown and alive.” - David Gray #WorldCurlewDay
Happy #WorldCurlewDay ! As Curlews return to breeding sites, our #ConservationAction blog highlights some of the work that’s been happening on our nature reserves to provide good habitat for Curlews to raise their chicks ➡ bit.ly/3vVtPuL
