Cors Bodeilio National Nature Reserve

Cors Bodeilio National Nature Reserve lies in a shallow valley outside Talwrn on the Isle of Anglesey. Most of the land consists of a lime-rich mire. This type of wetland is rare, giving the reserve national importance. It is host to a large range of plants and animals, including the medicinal leech.
