Nature is good for you: Studies show that being outside can improve your mental health and physical health, reducing stress, putting you in a better mood and even increasing productivity.
Recording wildlife is key to protecting it: It’s hard to protect something when you don’t know it’s there. The same is true of the wildlife that makes use of our gardens.
Gardens are important habitats which are often under-recorded: Wildlife-friendly gardens are safe spaces for an amazing diversity of wildlife, including birds, bugs, mammals and more. Documenting this wildlife is crucial to learn what goes on in these mini-ecosystems so that we can help protect them.
