Sharpham Trust
More birds and insects have been recorded just ONE year into a South Devon #rewilding project backed by the National Lottery Heritage Fund.
As the United Nations’ #WorldRewildingDay arrives (Saturday 20 March 2021), The Sharpham Trust and Ambios Ltd share good news about our work to restore #nature on 50 acres of farmland in our project Wild For People.
Nature IS returning, according to evidence gathered in the first year by the project’s leaders.
In just 12 months:
* Cirl buntings – a species endangered through industrialised farming methods - have been photographed on the Sharpham Estate for the first time
* Great Green Bush Cricket numbers are up and have been found in the middle of fields, something that we would never have seen in previous years where the habitat would not have been suitable. Great Green Bush Crickets are an important food source for birds and bats including the rare Greater Horseshoe Bat
*Seed-eating birds such as linnets & goldfinches have been seen in greater numbers, benefiting from uncultivated fields with more plant seedheads
*Perching birds including the Stonechat have been measured in increased numbers, enjoying the longer vegetation where they perch to feed on grasshoppers and other insects
*Swallows, swifts and housemartins have been spotted in large numbers swooping over the fields richer in insect life since pesticide use has halted.
There are 3 more years of the project left to run...
