Yesterday (Thursday 23/4/20) I went for a walk with my family to try and find micro habitats and habitats in our local area.
Below are some pictures that we took of what we think are the habitats

Birds nest in a tree



A very small Hole in the ground maybe where worms, ants or bees live (some bees live in the ground)



A mole hill where the mole pushes extra soil out of the ground as they live in tunnels underground



These aren’t a home but are where rabbits or hares sit to hide when scared.




This is possibly the entrance to a rabbit warren or a water vole home as it’s at the side of a dyke. 



There were some small insects on the water called ‘water boatmen’ and in the plants could live frogs, tadpoles, flies, fish and newts




This is another hole in the dyke edge but could be where rats live



This is a very big hole leading into a warren type den I think because it’s a big one it could be where a fox lives as it looks too big for a rabbit.


Well done Libby! What super pictures and careful thinking about habitats!
