Geography

It is a sphagnum quaking bog with adjacent heather heathland.[2] The stream that runs axially through the bog drains at its eastern end into the infant Beaulieu River.

Biodiversity

It is notable for the presence of the rare ant Formica candida, sometimes called the shining bog ant, which was discovered there in the early 20th century by Horace Donisthorpe. The wetter areas contain the rare and diminutive bog orchid, Hammarbya paludosa.

It is also home to a large population of raft spiders as well as the crab spider Thomisus onustus.[1]

gollark: Make one thread do the reading/broadcasting in a loop, make the other thread do the listening-for-modem-messages/printing in a loop.
gollark: Er, no.
gollark: It sounds like you want to run the `read`ing and `print`ing bits in parallel. Maybe look at the thread(s) library? I think that's usable for that sort of thing.
gollark: There's not really any particularly good reason I can think of to use CC non-T at this point.
