connecting communities and nature
We have learnt a lot this week about the local habitat types you might find near where you live so let’s explore some more! Our water ways have countless different habiats for us to look at, from small streams and rivers to huge lakes or oceans! What are you waiting for? Dive right in!
This week we have been learning all about water and why it is so important, but did you know that you can make a career out of enjoying our watery spaces? Read on to find out about some career lines you could take!
As we learnt in a previous blog about waves, some waves can be destructive and will begin to erode our shoreline. But how do we help defend our coastal areas from this erosion? Read on to find out!
Water is naturally recycled constantly through a process called the water cycle, this process allows the movement of water from the sea, to the sky, to the land and back again!
Most of us have been to the beach and watched the waves lap against the shore, but have you ever wondered how those waves were formed and how they help to shape our shore lines? Read on to find out!
What happens when bats need our help? We had a chat with Amber, a registered bat carer, to give us an insight into the amazing work she is doing with the Bat Conservation Trust!
So, we have learnt in previous posts about how Bats use echolocation and why is it so important. To follow on from this read on to discover which other animals use echolocation and how this incredible skill has diversified through the animal kingdom…
In the UK we have 18 different species of bat, but in total there are approximately 1,400 spread worldwide. They can be found on every continent except Antarctica, making them runners up only to rodents when it comes to habitat diversity and number of species.
But what is a bat and why are they so special?
