The #crucian carp need our help. Great coverage of the plight of this fab fish by @JackPerksPhoto. This was us finding a new population hidden in the Norfolk wilds on the last day of our 2024 crucian conservation week @AnglersMail @MattHayesfish @EnvAgencyAnglia @WildFishCons

This week I'm after crucians with @norfolkponds & @carlsayerUCL which was amazing to see these incredible fish close up! youtube.com/watch?v=Z_Einh…

Of all the stillwater habitats lakes are the most important for freshwater biodiversity conservation & hence deserve more attention. New research published from the @HydroscapeNERC project @AlanLaw_ @NWillby. link.springer.com/article/10.100…

Colonisation of a ressurected ancient #ghostpingo pond in just 1 year. From 0 to 40 wetland plants in the blink of a frog's eye because of a long-lived #seedbank. Anyone seen any form of ecological restoration more successful than this? @hburningham @tim_holt_wilson @NorfolkWT

The miracle that is a restored #ghostpond in the middle of arable. This #pond was filled in >100 yrs ago & lost. We ressurected it back in 2015. It is now *ALIVE*. How many species can you see? You may even see fish. The most successful form of ecological restoration known!
