The Kingfishers Bridge Nature Reserve is the brainchild of Andrew Green, a pioneering former fenland farmer and enthusiastic conservationist.
Andrew began farming land east of the river Cam in the 1960s and fell in love with the fens and its wildlife, building his family a home on-site in the 1970s. Living and farming there, Andrew saw the great potential to develop his land for wildlife. Using the River Cam as a wildlife corridor to draw new species in he began working with Roger Beecroft to make his vision a reality in the 1990's. Andrew has always played a key role in the development and management of Kingfishers Bridge, displaying time and again the same pioneering approaches to challenges and obstacles that made his farming enterprises such a success. From wildlife surveying and habitat maintenance, to leading guided walks and educational groups, Andrew continues to play a vital role in making Kingfishers Bridge a sanctuary for wildlife and raising awareness of the importance of the natural world around us for the next generation |
