Working at a landscape-scale means connecting up habitats. Bigger, better and more beneficial for people, climate and nature 💪

Looking back on brill weekend in the Cairngorms with the RSPB Youth Council. We were taken round by Cairngorms Connect who showed us all the INCREDIBLE work they are doing with their partners to restore the landscape to its former glory. Incredibly inspiring! 🌱

At Hill to Grill, we served up over 300 free Cairngorms Connect Venison burgers with hedgerow ketchup or foraged nettle pesto 🍔

Who knew ecological restoration could be so tasty!

Great couple of days with the RSPB Youth Council visiting Cairngorms Connect project and looking at our purpose, aims & vision for the future. The group is pure energy and a positive change is on its way! naturevoice

If you're the type of person who enjoys getting knee deep in wetlands, this could be the #job for you...

RSPB Scotland are looking for a warden, based at Insh Marshes, to help deliver conservation management on the UK's biggest floodplain mire.

Fantastic discussions all round at the Cairngorms Connect conference in Aviemore today. Let's talk about #LandscapeScaleHabitatRestoration Cairngorms Connect

The Cairngorms Connect vision of nature restoration across huge swathes of the National Park, has been close to my heart since Day 1. It was great to see so many folk now involved in the project’s delivery come together today…and so many young faces! #generationrestoration

Had a great group from the Cairngorms Connect conference up to the scrub line with twisted pines and a wood ant nest at 590m a.s.l.

Tonight, Amanda Thomson, one of our Artists in Residence will be talking about her new book 'belonging' in Grantown.

See you there!
