Read all about the activity in and on our reserves this year. From the wildlife that calls our reserves home to the activities that help maintain a healthy habitat. This report was written by Louise M, our seasonal ranger.
Our first event of 2025 will be held online on 16th January. Join Petra Vergunst, renowned lichenologist in the Northeast, as she explores archaeological monuments as a habitat for lichens, mosses and liverworts.
Last month, as part of our Ranging for Nature programme, we took the Stonehaven Beavers and Cubs out for a bat walk in Dunnottar Woods. We played some batty games, shared fascinating facts and shone a light on the lives of our flying mammal friends. There were whoops of joy when the bats appeared and gave us an aerial display. With thanks to the Leaders of the Stonehaven Beavers and Cubs for giving us a warm welcome and providing lots of lovely photos.
