A day of 'ghostpingo' #pond resurrection in the Norfolk Brecklands with @timholtwilson.bsky.social & other wonderful experts. By the end of tomorrow Norfolk will have 2 more of its lost ancient ponds back

Ghostpingo #pond restorations are doing what they needed to do! We are recovering a lost wetland flora buried alive out in the corn fields by careful digging @georgemonbiot.bsky.social @patrickbarkham.bsky.social @wildernorfolk.bsky.social @brecksfarmerswn.bsky.social @farmwildlifeuk.bsky.social
#Ghostpond restoration is rocket fuelled conservation! Over 4-5 years we have seen 100s of wet-loving plants return to 30 resurrected ice age ponds in Norfolk, England. This year's surveys saw us find more scarce species: Marsh Pennywort, Marsh Speedwell & Fringed Heartwort. So Thrilled!!!

1/2: A Norfolk #ghostpingo #pond during, just after, 1 year (2024) & 2 years (2025) after ressurection. The pond now supports well over 35 wetland plants. It is stunning & getting better & better. An old seedbank was surely exposed allowing rapid plant colonisation

Excavating an ancient Norfolk #ghostpingo #ghostpond last summer. This year expecting 100s of species already in the pond that has resulted. Resurrecting lost ponds may be THE most successful means of freshwater nature recovery #ghostpond
