Wildlife in Herts and Middlesex
Hertfordshire and Middlesex hold a variety of different landscapes, which are home to a huge number of plants and animals, some common and some rare or endangered.
Both counties have much to offer anyone who enjoys wildlife or being outdoors. Whether you want to ramble along quiet footpaths or explore more rugged scenery, if you are a keen botanist or bird watcher, or just enjoy the wildlife that can be seen from the kitchen window, Herts and Middlesex Wildlife Trust can help you get close to wildlife.
Living Landscapes“The Wildlife Trusts are now daring to imagine a Living Landscape for the UK, where people and wildlife benefit from each other; where human activities contribute to the protection and enhancement of wildlife sites; and where nature is accessible to all and contribute to the physical, mental and emotional well being of people.”
Wildlife SitesWildlife Sites are the most important places for wildlife outside legally protected land such as Nature Reserves or Sites of Special Scientific Interest. There are almost 2,000 Wildlife Sites in Hertfordshire, totalling over 16,000 hectares.
