🥳🐟🦦 Some great river connectivity news! The removal of obsolete barriers are a great opportunity for re-connecting migratory species with the habitats they rely on, but they also help to reduce the risk to human health, win-win!!
🦋Are you into nature? 👉Did you know you can submit the details of all local wildlife & habitat sightings to @cedarnmni 📲Online Recording both native and non-native species at: nationalmuseumsni.org/cedar
🌿 Today is #WorldWetlandsDay! Conserving wetlands is essential not only for people’s ecological health but also for the many benefits they provide to human societies ensuring a harmonious coexistence with #nature.
Brilliant day presenting our poster at the @BritishEcolSoc #BES2023 conference! Great conversations about the maps and potential of implementing #NatureRecoveryNetworks in Northern Ireland.
😍Our poster for the @BritishEcolSoc #BES2023 conference is out of the printers and ready to go! We're looking forward to presenting our work in partnership with @NaturalEngland to produce the first-ever habitat network maps for NI. Come and say hi to us on Thursday at B4.5! 🤓
Really looking forward to all the talks, chats and presenting on our mapping work during the poster session on December 14th, come and say hi!! #BES2023
