We promote the study and recording of wildlife in Hertfordshire and encourage a wider interest in natural history including the conservation of wildlife, habitats and geological features.
We get real value from your observations by coordinating and compiling everyone's records to build up a comprehensive picture of the state of wildlife in the county.
This helps us understand how it is changing over time in response to the pressures of modern life and climate change.
