Danes Moss
Most of the small mammals have been observed on the Moss, together with badger, brown hare and grey squirrel. At least 75 species of bird have been recorded in the area. Green woodpecker, willow warbler, reed bunting and bullfinch are known to breed here. Eleven species of dragonfly and damselfly have been recorded here, many of which are rare in Cheshire, including the black darter, Britain’s smallest dragonfly.
