Nature Reserves
Essex Wildlife Trust is the county's leading conservation charity. We have 11 Nature Discovery Centres, 87 Nature Reserves, 2 Nature Parks and manage 8,400 acres of land.
Danbury Ridge Nature Reserves are a wonderful mosaic of woodland, common, heathland, streams and bogs
Nature Tots is a weekly parent and toddler group where young children can explore, play and learn through nature.
January is always good for birds at Abberton Reservoir: a birding hotspot whose powerful flame often burns brightest when temperatures are at their lowest.
Spring is arriving at Abberton, albeit slowly. The weather is cloudy and blustery. There is the beginnings of leaves on Hawthorn and blossom on Blackthorn showing in the young woodland.
