We are wishing you all a wonderful #WorldShorebirdsDay. The sight of Oystercatchers teaching young to feed is a regular wonder on the late summer coast. From sharing our beaches with them, to vast habitat creation projects, we can all play a role in supporting their future 🐤

Soil is often hugely overlooked - but you can't have good air or water quality if you don't have good soil quality. The time has come to start taking care of the crumbly brown stuff....Find out more on our brand new WADER youtube channel! youtu.be/aqJL8bMDvko @LIFEprogramme

Recent research showed the saltmarshes of North Norfolk and the Humber are vital havens for breeding Redshanks thanks to the food-rich mud there. Great for birds, not so much for surveyors… so we asked the team what it’s really like ⬇️ brnw.ch/21wMzdg 📷 Ben Andrews
