Let Us Know What Wildlife You Have Seen
To many of us the Little Egret will be a familiar site along Bere Stream; Buzzards
and Kestrels are frequent visitors at Souls Moor over the winter period for food as
earthworms are forced to the surface by the rising water table.
We would be very interested to learn about other wildlife (be it birds, mammals,
fish, butterflies, reptiles, amphibians etc, common or unusual) you’ve seen locally.
Please send sightings to Tony (tonybates@thebeeches.f9.co.uk) or Mike
(mike.n.g@outlook.com). We are fortunate to have a wide range of habitats
around the Parish (woodland, meadows, heath, streams etc) and it would be
good to build up a picture of the wildlife resources we have in the area.
