Wildlife in Islington
Islington Wildlife
LB Islington have created a new Blog all about the wildlife that lives in Islington. It may be surprising to some people that any wildlife can survive in such a built-up urban area but when we start looking around us, it is even possible find some rare species that manage to survive amongst the more usual creatures and plants that live alongside us in our local area.
The Islington Wildlife blog has a link to NGAG's own Biodiversity Web Gallery, which is gratifying. We expect this gallery to keep on growing as we learn more about the species that live on and around Newington Green.
You can visit the Islington Wildlife site and see how it develops over time. It aims to show different local habitats and to reflect the many species living here as they adapt to the changing seasons:

An unusual resident...
Islington's new wildlife blog has certainly had great start with some unusual visitors being spotted around the borough. An albino fox and a Red Throated Thrush are amongst the unusual celebrities that have appeared on our blog as well as many of the seasonal changes that are occuring. Our blog keeps you up to date with what our birds, pond life and other wildlife are doing as well as our telling you about our trees, plants and the habitats that exist in Islington.
