RSPB Rainham Marshes - It's not just about the birds

RSPB Rainham Marshes - It's not just about the birds
Howard Vaughan
25th November 2021
RSPB Rainham Marshes is one of the top birding sites in the LNHS recording area. Its mosaic of aquatic habitats, grassland, scrub, woodland and location close to the River Thames estuary also makes it a biodiversity rich site where a wide range of species have been recorded. However there is so much more to the reserve than just the birds and this talk will also cover the other interesting wildlife found here from Water Voles and Grass Snakes through Hoverflies, Dragons and Butterflies and much more.
