Thank you to the @leevalleypark.bsky.social volunteers who helped our Ranger Service at Waltham Abbey Gardens yesterday. Tasks included clearing netting, turning over the soil, weeding around 42 fruit trees, planting wildflower seeds and covering them over with bark.

A dusk delight for volunteers at one of our Bittern surveys! As the sun went down the lucky watchers caught sight of a Otter breaking the water 🦦

Keep an eye out for Shovelers in the park this autumn and winter 🔍 You can upload your sightings here www.visitleevalley.org.uk/wildlife-wat...
Shovelers scoop up today’s #AutumnArrivalSpotlight! 🦆

With their oversized, spatula-shaped bills, these quirky ducks join UK wetlands in autumn, swelling in numbers with arrivals from the continent.

There’s hope for the critically endangered Scarce Tufted-sedge plant (Carex cespitosa). Found at just 1 UK site, Lee Valley Regional Park Authority joined a recovery plan, spearheaded by Herts and Middlesex Wildlife Trust
to save the wetland plant from extinction in the UK. ow.ly/wbtC50Vwn6C 🌾
