Kenworthy wildlife

Biodiversity is all living things,from the tiny garden ant to the giant redwood tree. You will find biodiversity everywhere, in window boxes and wild woods, roadsides and rainforests, snowfields and the seashore.

But don't take plants and animals for granted. We are part of biodiversity and depend on it for our quality of life. And what we don't save now, our children will pay for later. Biodiversity is the living bank that everyone should invest in. Now it is banking on you.

Wildlife to look out for at Kenworthy Wood

The new and existing woodlands provide a home to lots of wildlife. Birds found on this site include pheasant, woodcock and long tailed tits, and a wide range of woodland fungi has also been recorded.

Its not just the woodlands which are important - the grassland and wet areas are ideal habitat for herons and warblers, butterflies and orchids.

The Mersey Valley Countryside Wardens actively manage the site to ensure it continues to improve and keep track of what wildlife occurs – why not get in contact with them to let them know what you’ve seen at www.merseyvalley.org.uk.
