Foulshaw Moss is a raised bog in Cumbria, England. In 1998 it was bought by Cumbria Wildlife Trust, which has worked to reverse damage caused to the bog by drainage and afforestation. It is protected as a Site of Special Scientific Interest and as part of the Witherslack Mosses Special Area of Conservation along with two smaller bogs Meathop Moss and Nichols Moss. With funding from Natural England, the Cumbria Wildlife Trust and the British Dragonfly Society have reintroduced a rare species of dragonfly, the White-faced darter, to the site from 2010. This is the first UK reintroduction of this species.[1] In 2014 ospreys nested at Foulshaw Moss.[2][3] At the end of 2014 the Cumbria Wildlife Trust announced a project to develop a reed bed at Foulshaw Moss with funding from the SITA Trust. It was hoped to attract wildlife such as the bittern to the new habitat, which would replicate "lagg fen" which forms naturally round the edges of peat domes.[3] AccessBoardwalks and bird hides allow visitors to view the ospreys from a distance.[4] References1. ^{{cite news | url=https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2011/jun/13/rare-dragonflies-hatch-reserve | title=Rare dragonflies hatch at reserve following reintroduction | work=The Guardian | year=2011 | accessdate=January 16, 2013}} 2. ^{{cite web | url=http://www.thewestmorlandgazette.co.uk/news/11197563.Ospreys_seen_at_new_site_in_South_Lakes/ | title=Ospreys seen at new site | work=The Westmorland Gazette | date=May 2014 | accessdate=6 July 2014 | author=Murphy, Tom}} 3. ^1 {{cite web | url=http://www.thewestmorlandgazette.co.uk/news/11694997.Cumbria_Wildlife_Trust_awarded___60_000_to_create_40_hectares_of_reedbed_at_Foulshaw_Moss/ | title=Cumbria Wildlife Trust awarded £60,000 to create 40 hectares of reedbed at Foulshaw Moss| work=The Westmorland Gazette | date=December 2014 | accessdate=2 January 2015 | author=Dickinson, Katie}} 4. ^{{Cite web |url=https://www.cumbriawildlifetrust.org.uk/news/new-bird-hides-flagship-south-lakes-nature-reserve |title=New bird hides at flagship |website=Cumbria Wildlife Trust}} External links
