We love living in Cumbria and particularly enjoy sharing our life in the Lake District with all the local wildlife - whether it's hearing the sound of buzzards "pinging" overhead as they hunt for food, startling a red deer or cursing a red squirrel that won't sit still for a photo, wildlife in Cumbria is everywhere.
If you want to see it our best advise is to slow down, take a pair of binoculars and be prepared to sit still for a long time - your chances are also greatly improved if you don't take your dog with you.
Gaining
World Heritage Site Status would enable us to better protect the wildlife we already have and create and protect environments to allow existing residents to flourish and maybe attract a few new ones too.
