RSPB Leighton Moss Collection
A collection of designs inspired by RSPB Leighton Moss - the largest reedbed in northwest England, home to important breeding birds and other wildlife. This diverse habitat along the shores of nearby Morecambe Bay provides a home for important breeding populations of bearded tits and bitterns. Its wildlife ponds support dragonflies, while the coastal saltmarsh lagoons attract large numbers of wading birds including oystercatchers. These creatures, together with brimstone and orange tip butterflies and wigeon ducks are celebrated in all their glory in this collection.
