Big celebrations at @amakhala to mark the reserves 25th anniversary, and the opening of a new wildlife corridor 🎉 This corridor connects land that has been split for over 200 years, creating a 9000-hectare haven for wildlife - who are already exploring 🙌

One year on from Storm Arwen and the Grey Seal population back as strong as ever. Heartening to see after the massive loss of pups last year - no reduction in the number of breeding females either. LIFE FINDS A WAY 🦭 💥

You never know what you might see out at the Islands. Skipper Steve & Michael onboard St Cuthbert 3 were very lucky to spot this Humpback yesterday afternoon near Crumstone Island. #billyshiel #farneislands #Whale

The first of the Little Tern chicks was seen flying this morning. A welcome boost during these challenging times for sea birds. #wildliferefuges ⁦@NE_Northumbria⁩

Having navigated the recent high tides, eggs are hatching and chicks are mobile across the beaches, and rocky shore. Please continue to respect the dedicated Shorebird Protection Areas and keep dog on a short lead throughout the Reserve. #littleterns

A brief respite from all the avian flu news weighing us down - a chance to get out and count seabirds tonight. 😁 @BexOutram @N_T_S

Come and join Natural England staff at Lindisfarne NNR this Saturday afternoon to explore the intertidal world and learn about the invasive species that now call the North East home. Meet at St Cuthberts island near the old lifeboat station on Holy Island #INNSweek

🦭 a window into life in a Grey Seal colony. It was filmed before Storm Arwen tore through the reserve - good to reflect on how nature can go from serene to brutal in the blink of an eye. nts.org.uk/stories/seal-pups…

#RhinoRemembranceDay - gone, but never forgotten. Today we pay tribute to rhinos tragically lost to poaching. The Rhino Memorial at God's Window will forever remind us of what we will continue to fight for. amakhala.co.za/conservation/…
