Welcome to Hackney Wildlife, the online resource for everyone interested in the fauna and flora of the London borough of Hackney.

Sections are being added regularly, so keep checking back for new developments.
We're a non-profit, independent group, studying Hackney's greenspace - including Stoke Newington Reservoirs, Hackney Marshes, Abney Park Cemetery, Springfield Park, Middlesex Filter Beds, The River Lea and Clissold Park - as well as working closely with various national and local organistations to survey and promote the borough's biodiversity.
Are you a Hackney resident with an interest in the borough's wildlife? We're running several public surveys this year, and taking part couldn't be easier.
We're trying to establish the status of two species in particular, The House Martin and the Hedgehog. Help us find out how they're doing in Hackney by clicking here.
