Five years after taking over a disused transformer tower in the Ahr Valley, work is now beginning on converting it into a species conservation tower. Situated right next to a nursery school, it will provide a new refuge for Common Kestrels, Barn Owls, House Martins, Sparrows, Common Swifts, bats and many other building-dwelling species – as well as a nature discovery area for children.
