Pulborough Brooks nature reserve is home to more than 2000 different species, some of them rare or threatened. The lowland wet grassland is part of the Arun Valley floodplain and is criss crossed by ditches which host some incredibly rare and special creatures and plants. The grassland, pools and scrapes provide feeding areas for our wintering wildfowl and nesting areas for our wading birds. On hi
gher ground we are developing wildflower meadows and managing arable fields for winter finches. These are linked by hedgerows and scrub to woodland areas, all of which are vital for our nesting songbirds, small mammals and bats. We're gradually restoring an area of lowland heath which now features ling and bell heather as well as cross-leaved heath. Along with acid grassland, wooded edges and bare ground it is home to some specialist heathland wildlife including breeding nightjar, pantaloon bees and small red damselfly. Let's step up and save it – together. Find us on Twitter
