Council owned land in Aberdeen will be turned into wildlife corridors to help bees in the city.

Work to create wildlife corridors in Aberdeen is ongoing with the aim of helping bees thrive in the city.

The Aberdeen B-Lines project is hoping to use 20 hectares of council owned land to help offset the loss of flower-rich grasslands.

It is focusing on areas such as the River Don, River Dee, and along the coast.

Sites selected for habitat improvements stretch from TECA in the north to Torry Battery in the south, and include the Donmouth Nature Reserve and the Beach Esplanade.

Wildflower grassland enhancement work commenced in the Spring.
