Bulldozers could soon tear through this area of natural beauty to make way for the Norwich Western Link road.
We need more of this biodiversity, not less.

A tough week finished yesterday completing the NC500 bike ride. Stunning scenery, amazing wildlife and fun times. Will be giving the legs a well earned rest for a few days. #NC500 #CyclingNC500 #CyclingScotland

Citizen science in action!
Volunteers joined Kai'a and Pete to survey Riverflies on the River Frome - finding mayflies, stoneflies, and caddisflies.
We also saw lamprey, sticklebacks, and bullheads🐟

ALT A white tray half filled with water. There are several small, wide brown fish in it (bullheads) as well as one brook lamprey which is longer, thinner, and lacking fins.
