Kew Pond - Reed management
With Biodiversity Action Team (West London)
About 10.2 miles away from your postcode
At Kew Pond
Activity description
We will be working in Kew Pond to manage reed growth to maintain open water and ensure reeds don't dominate the habitat. We will also provide s bit of TLC to the alder buckthorn we planted on the island earlier this year. The common reed grows to form large reedbeds which act as important habitat for many bird species (e.g. reed warbler). In ponds, and smaller waterways, reedbeds can start to dominate the habitat reducing the amount of open water available for waterfowl to use. Reedbeds are often managed yearly, with removal of small sections of reeds each year. We will provide waders and pond gloves. Please note our smallest waders are a size 7, if you have smaller feet please bring an extra thick pair of socks. We will have one or two non-water tasks for those not wanting to get in the pond.
