Wilder Kent Blog

Kent Wildlife Trust volunteer Margery Thomas talks about the stunning Hothfield Heathlands Nature Reserve and what kind of species we can expect to find there in August.

Do you still feel like hibernating through to the end of winter? You would be in good company with many animals and invertebrates on Hothfield Heathland. However, a walk out there at this time of year is exhilarating and you won’t be alone.

Kent Wildlife Trust was thrilled to hear that its Guardians of the Deep project passed the second stage of the HLF application process with flying colours. Our Marine Officer Fiona White reflects on the 2-year journey to get here.

Our Connectivity Programme Manager Paul Hadaway reflects on the hard work and tireless efforts of the Kent Wildlife Teams and supporters for the Fifth Continent Landscape Partnership Scheme project for Romney Marsh.

Lynne and Peter Flower have written an update on our work to enhance the number of Barn Owls in and around Kent.

Paul Hadaway, our Connectivity Programme Manager, has written for us about his reflections on conservation in the county inspired by the beauty he encoutered during a train journey.

Margery Thomas is one of our fantastic volunteers and she has written a blog for us about our Hothfield Heathlands nature reserve. She spends many hours supporting our wardens to protect and enhance wildlife at this special reserve.
