Welcome to our blog.

Since November 2012, Kings Weston Action Group (KWAG) have been beavering away, with the help of the Bristol Natural History Consortium (BNHC) and ExtraVerte Community Projects CIC (EV) to organize a BioBlitz at Kings Weston Estate.

What’s a BioBlitz?

A BioBlitz is a way to pull in the massed effort of professional naturalists, schools and members of the public to investigate and catalogue all the species of flora and fauna in an area.

Why do this at Kings Weston Estate?

Because the Estate was a formal, planned landscape but fell into disuse over the years.  We want to find out what remains of planned landscape and how it has influenced the ecology of the remaining parkland.
