Longer spring days mean the arrival of both lambs 🐑 in the landscape and ground-nesting birds 🐣 seeking a summer home, often unseen! So when you're out in the #PeakDistrict... 🐶 Keep dogs on a short lead 🥾 Keep to the signposted paths 🚯 Take home what you bring

And to establish links between existing woodland and tree cover through providing “stepping stones” to allow species such as Willow Tit to increase their range, and to provide extra cover and food for a range of species, such as Redwing, Fieldfare and Ring Ouzel. (3/3)

Trees have been planted for a number of reasons: replacing iconic veteran trees to ensure we have Hawthorns and Rowans for the next generation of people and wildlife to enjoy…

Our Wednesday volunteer walling team are out every week, come rain or shine, repairing and rebuilding drystone walls on the Eastern & Burbage Moors. They have recently been doing a cracking job of rebuilding a section near Froggatt Edge 👍

We’ve had a fantastic (and freezing) day planting sphagnum moss on Burbage Moor today with our Thursday volunteers and @NaturalEngland’s uplands team. Through cutting and rewetting, we are restoring the ecology of this special place with help from @moorsforfuture

Great to have the Rural Crime Team from Derbyshire Police with us this afternoon - lots of knowledge sharing and discussions around joint working in 2025.

Working with SCC the remains of conifer plantation are being replaced by something more nature rich. Great work Eastern Moors volunteers.

@UlleyRanger @NorthleesBill For us every person asked to leave and does isnt seen as a success. When people visit and help us look after our moorlands we count that a success. Our success rate is how many we welcome to stay. If that makes sense.

@NorthleesBill @EasternMoors 👏👏, can I ask a serious question @NorthleesBill ?.... is the lighting of fires a contravention of byelaws or criminal law.... we have this argument on sites where I work and regularly get told to "go away". What's the escorting off site success rate?

@UlleyRanger @NorthleesBill I think the important thing here is that every situation and group is different. We want people to enjoy and look after our moorlands and woodlands. Damage by fire to property, our wildlife and natural,cultural heritage is protected by both bylaws and criminal law.

This year we are beginning colour ringing Ring Ouzel chicks to help understand population changes on the Peak District's Eastern Edges. Over recent years productivity has generally been good but numbers of pairs returning to breed has varied. (1/7)

Inspiring to see the collaboration between @SheffCouncil and @WildSheffield to regenerate woodland on Burbage Moor.🌳 Thousands of native trees have been planted up the slopes of the publicly-owned moorland to help tackle climate change, flooding and biodiversity loss.

@Lukesteele4 That looks like the very special willow fringed acid wet flushes on Big Moor. A glimpse of a once more wooded mosaic.

@prosocialplace We haven’t planted any so far, but it’s certainly something we we’ll look into for future planting.

Thank you to everyone who has helped us to plant over 12,000 trees on the Eastern & Burbage Moors over the course of the last Winter. (A thread - 1/5)

(5/5) This "bundle planting" approach consists of a mixture of thorny species and trees (mainly Rowan, Oak and Birch) to increase their resilience to deer browsing, and reduce the need for guards and fencing, where conditions are suitable.

(4/5) We've also been planting without guards, using thorny scrub (Hawthorn and Blackthorn) to act as a natural tree guard, outside of bracken dominated areas. Tree species include Sessile Oak, Rowan, Silver and Downy Birch, and Willow and Alder in wetter areas.
