    We were so excited to spot this wonderful celebration of our Wild ID guides from @ChrisPackham over the weekend. We think he may be our charity’s biggest fan! Describing the guides as ‘brilliant’ ‘fantastic’ ‘superb’ and ‘incredibly useful’ his passion is fabulous to see. Thank

    Sphagnum mosses are familiar in many wet habitats. It’s tempting to make an identification based on colour & overall look but since they're not always well-grown & can be morphologically variable it's worth a bit more attention. AIDGAP field guide 👉 ow.ly/eKp950H2HUT
