Spring has sprung, so there is plenty to look out for. Listen for new arrivals as we enter one of the most exciting periods in the wildlife calendar.
As the temperature goes up and down, and the water thaws and refreezes, our wildlife responds; another aspect of the changing face of the Great Fen.
Warmer temperatures have finally produced some better moth records, both day and night.
