Paul Kirkland has been in touch to ask if we could all complete a brief, simple questionnaire on the proposed Species on the Edge project, being drawn up by a partnership including ARC, RSPB and NatureScot.

Paul tells us that:

“The Solway is one of the landscapes where the Scotland-wide project intends to work, from next year for 4½ years, to help conserve threatened species such as the natterjack toad, lapwing, tadpole shrimp and northern argus butterfly.

We are very keen to get your views on what we are proposing and whether you can make further suggestions that will improve the project.”

And to provide more background there is a short [lovely!] video >>here<<

Please feel free to spread the word and share the questionaire – the more participants the better!
