Nature

Countryfile magazine is available to borrow as an electronic magazine. Online, we have back issues available, so no matter what aspect of British wildlife you're interested in, there's certain to be more information and inspiration to visit Britain's beautiful landscapes.

Pull on your wellies - conservation volunteering is a great way to get out into the fresh air and meet other nature enthusiasts. Many of Cambridgeshire's nature reserves have volunteer groups associated with them, check out their website for some ideas; or if you are in Cambridge, the Cambridge Conservation Volunteers meet every Sunday.

Whether or not you're happy to brave the elements, you can enjoy the best of local wildlife and landscapes from the comfort of your sofa, thanks to these videos showcasing Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Norfolk's nature reserves.

The best way to explore nature is simply to head outside and enjoy the natural wonders of our county. The National Trust website is a good place to start for walking routes and maps. From short-eared owls to damselflies, from woodlands to fens, these trails showcase flora and fauna around Cambridgeshire.

Much of Cambridgeshire, particularly the East, is dominated by the Fens - a biodiverse area of wetland. This programme, with the nature writer Simon Barnes, explores some of the history of the Fens and the wildlife and flora that can be found there now.

There are lots of opportunities to meet other nature enthusiasts in Cambridgeshire, including talks; species surveys and nature reserve volunteering. A good place to start is this list of natural history groups and events. Compiled by Cambridge Natural History Society, you'll find information on how to connect with groups specialising in birds, flowers, fungi and more.
