Wild Chiswick
For people with an interest in Urban Wildlife, specifically Chiswick, London.
Lovely photos from the wildlife allotment today. A spotted longhorn beetle, common darter and comma butterfly. The purple loose strife is coming into flower and so are the waterlillies. The damsel fly seem to like them
One of my favourites down at the wildlife allotment today - a thick legged beetle.
Pleased to put up more swift boxes today, including at Cavendish School. Fingers crossed!
A reminder of our evening with Gino Brignoli talking about Soil Biodiversity. After watching the film "Wilding" last week about the success of Knepp, it is even clearer that healthy soil is essential for biodiversity and a healthy, flourishing planet. We can all start by looking at our own gardens as these take up a large part of the urban environment and can support a wide range of biodiversity. Please register to attend this fascinating talk about the World Beneath our Feet via wildchiswick.com/event/soil-biodiversity/
We are delighted to have Gino Brignoli along to talk to us again. This time is will be about the world underneath our feet - Soil Biodiversity. Scientists believe that 50% of the world's species live within the soil. Without them we would not survive. Come along and hear about the amazing creatures that turn dirt, into soil and the crucial part they play in the survival of the planet. For dates, times and registration details, see the attached poster.
