A beautiful article about a beautiful place. At the time, the creation of #Steart was seen as bold and innovative. Now its success is helping us understand just how amazing #saltmarsh superpowers really are.
10 years ago, tidal waters were allowed to flood the Steart peninsula, creating what we now call WWT Steart Marshes. The @nytimes reporter @RorySmith tells the story of this wondrous, "radical solution" to flooding risk and climate change. 👇

They're still busy! 🙏 to the birder who told us they'd spotted one of our 2024 'head started' Godwits in Alicante, Spain on her way to winter in W Africa 🌍 Hatched @WWTWelney & released on the Nene Washes, she's already travelled nearly 1000 miles 🤞she'll be back in 2025🥚
Busy little #Godwits this #BiodiversityDay! You saw them hatching. They spent 4-5 days in a warm nursery growing & mastering those enormous feet! Then it's time for outside. As they strengthen & grow, their space grows with them. Then they get released. #bepartoftheplan

So excited this has got to launch! At @WWTworldwide, we have big ambitions. But we recognise delivering them needs #partnership & #collaboration. So we're sharing this work to help everyone play a part in delivering those ambitions. The time for #wetlands is now!
Today we're launching our Wetland Potential Maps. 🗺️ Looking at where wetlands would provide the most value to people and nature, the maps highlight 100,000 hectares of wetland potential around the UK. Find out more here 👉

What have we done to our world? Spending time in #Madagascar is like being on the front line of #climatechange. But it's not just here it's having an impact. Extremes are at risk of becoming the new normal. We need to build #resilience now. #wetland #superpowers

This is what it looks like when team @WWTworldwide see a Madagascar Fish Eagle! And not just that, but one with prey and a chick in the nest to feed it to. #Wetland superpower #biodiversity on full display for us in ##Ankarafantsika today. 🥰

Visiting @WWTMartinMere today: the scale & variety of habitat is amazing! But my standout is the moth trap & hoards of schoolchildren learning to love moths as a result. This little beauty is not a twig... it's a buff-tip moth camouflaging itself. How cool is nature?! 🥰

Absolutely stunning visit to @WWTCaerlaverock over the last two days. The very essence of sanctuary & such a privilege to play a part in the history this landscape. Winter is what it's famous for but summer is stunning! As highlighted by these #Swallows at the Saltcot hide.
