Beaver Lodge – LIVE from National Trust Holnicote Estate

If you are enjoying this Window to the Wild, help us restore nature with a donation: https://www.crowdfunder.co.uk/window-... In January 2020, an adult pair of Eurasian beavers were released at the Holnicote Estate in Somerset, England, to improve flood management and support the health of rivers and streams. They are helping to restore biodiversity loss, slow the flow of water and manage the effects of climate change. The team at Holnicote are closely monitoring how the beavers change the environment around them by creating dams and deep pools of water. This mosaic habitat has created homes for lots of other wildlife, including amphibians, bats, otters and birds (kingfisher, dipper and waterfowl). Let us know what wildlife you spot in the chat – so far we've seen beavers, otters, kingfisher, great spotted woodpecker, barn owl and more! With thanks to...
