Sheep have returned to the Heath 🐑

Tom and his team arrived with the herd of Oxford Down and Norfolk Horn sheep, who have been doing a very important job🐜

These sheep have been helping with conservation by grazing on a site with yellow meadow ants, managing shrubs, encouraging wildflowers and protecting biodiversity.

The sheep will be on the Heath Extension until this Sunday, 20 September.

A big thank you to Tom and the team at Mudchute Farm, and to the Heath and Hampstead Society.

It's International Bat Night, and we're celebrating these special creatures! Can you count how many individual bats are in these photos?📸🦇

Our teams carry out monitoring to understand the biodiversity of our green spaces. The species recorded, from Natterer's to Pipistrelles, are good ecological indicators, and each play a vital role in maintaining healthy ecosystems by feeding on insects after dark.

Have you spotted any bats so far this summer?
