The conservation of the elusive Jack Snipe bird is being bolstered by new funding through the Purple Horizons Nature Recovery Project, coordinated by Natural England.

This funding will support vital nature recovery efforts in Staffordshire, focusing on safeguarding and enhancing wetland habitats for this important bird species.

Jack Snipe are small wetland birds that migrate to Britain in winter, feeding on insects, worms, and plants in soft mud. The bird’s presence helps to tell us the health of wetland ecosystems. Funding will support targeted research and habitat improvements to ensure their survival and well-being in Staffordshire.
