Below the photograph, white and light blue text reads: "Head out on the water with Matt Baker and Katie Last to talk wetland health and habitat recovery."

An infographic with dark green and blue-green background panels features bold white text at the top: "Join Adam Berry to find out about how we’re encouraging white storks to nest in Derbyshire after 600 yrs."

Below the text, a photograph shows a filming crew outdoors in a grassy field.

🎨 Art meets rewilding at Allestree Park! Artist Rebecca Howard spent time with our Junior Rangers exploring how wild landscapes transform - inspiring an oil painting now on display at the #KneppEstate. Read her story in @theguardian.com 👇 theguardian.pulse.ly/d3ecl4gb0l #AllestreePark

An eye-level shot captures a lively art exhibition opening inside a long, narrow gallery with high, vaulted ceilings. From the ceiling, large, stylized white bird sculptures with dark-tipped wings hang suspended on thin wires, appearing to soar. On the left, glass doors lead outside, while the right wall is lined with large, colorful landscape paintings depicting natural scenes.

In the center of the gallery, a large, weathered tree root sculpture sits on a wooden pallet. Visitors gather around, engaging in conversation. On the right, a woman with shoulder-length blonde hair speaks into a microphone, standing beside another woman, both facing the audience.

In the foreground, the backs of three visitors are visible: a woman on the left wearing a blue and black patterned top, a woman in the center in a yellow top, and a man on the right in a dark, patterned shirt holding a glass. Near the glass doors in the background, a small group of people stands chatting, some holding drinks. To the far left, a woman wearing a black t-shirt, dark pants, and holding a small glass talks with other attendees. The atmosphere is warm and social, lit by soft overhead spotlights.

An angled, eye-level shot captures four rectangular, unframed landscape paintings hanging side-by-side in a row from thin, silver wires on a textured beige wall. The paintings are displayed in a line that recedes from right to left, with the painting on the far right being the closest and largest.

From right to left, the paintings depict:
1. A beaver dam made of branches blocking a stream, with water spilling over into a small, churning waterfall in the foreground. Trees line the background.
2. A close-up of a large tree trunk with exposed roots in a grassy field.
3. A sandy, winding riverbed or path under a blue sky with light clouds.
4. Two animals, possibly bison, grazing in a green, grassy field.

Underneath each painting is a small white label on the wall. At the bottom left, two electrical outlets are visible.

The Peak District looks green, but is it truly wild? 🌿 Centuries of habitat loss mean nature exists in isolated patches. We’re working to restore wilder, connected habitats, aiming for 30% of land managed for nature by 2030! 👉 Discover the vision: pulse.ly/zxzfyhctah #WilderDerbyshire

A woman with long brown hair stands with her back to the camera at the edge of a grassy cliff, overlooking a deep, green valley bathed in warm, golden sunlight. A narrow, winding road cuts through the valley below. In the distance, a vast patchwork of fields stretches toward the horizon under a soft, hazy sky.

Dark green text at the top reads "Look closely at". Below it, "the Peak District" is written in bold, dark green text on a light pink, wavy banner. At the bottom, within a dark green border, pink text asks, "What do you see?".

Our four-legged ecosystem engineers are hard at work at Lea Wood 🐷 Despite the dry ground, the three new pigs are making fantastic inroads into dense bramble and bracken to help shape the land and help new life grow 🌿 Have you been to see them yet? 📷 Guy Badham, Amy Bennett, Danielle Brown

An eye-level, close-up shot of a light brown, hairy pig with floppy ears looking directly forward. It stands amidst green ferns, leafy weeds, and dry grass, with a few purple wildflowers blurred in the background on the left.

An overhead, close-up shot shows a light brown Tamworth pig lying down in a mud wallow with its snout covered in wet, dark mud. The pig's head is in the foreground, with its large snout and ears resting on the muddy ground. Its body extends back into a shallow pool of muddy water next to a pink plastic trough.

A brown pig with coarse hair and a mud-dusted face stands amidst dense green foliage, including ferns and leafy weeds. The pig looks directly toward the camera with large ears perked up. Another brown pig is partially visible on the left, mostly hidden behind the lush green ferns.

A low-angle, eye-level shot of a narrow dirt path winding upward through dense green undergrowth. The path is covered in dry soil, twigs, and scattered leaves. Overhead, a low canopy of thick, gnarled tree branches hangs down, covered in vibrant green leaves, creating a tunnel-like archway. Lush green ferns and leafy bushes frame both sides of the path, with soft, natural light filtering through the foliage.

Restoring wetlands is about community as much as wildlife! They shield us from climate extremes, and give us space to connect with nature 🩵 Give monthly: www.derbyshirewildlifetrust.org.uk/…
