Hearing and seeing birds and other wildlife is an important part of that calming nature experience. But what does growing use of the Heath mean for its habitats and wildlife?
How will the wear and tear to the Heath and the high numbers of visitors we are now seeing affect the behaviour and survival of wildlife there?  ....
