Wildlife

It’s that time of year when we’re seeing many signs of wildlife in the area, with sightings of lots of different species of birds as well as bees and butterflies.  Some of you may have read about ‘Bert’ the hedgehog, who was found wandering around a garden with an injured back leg in Landen Park in the daytime a few weeks ago.  Please do be vigilant as we get the lawnmowers out again as it is possible that hedgehogs could be resting or nesting in longer grass.

Perhaps the most unusual sighting so far this year is that of a heron landing on the roofs of a couple of buildings in Westleas and then Landen Park!
