Rewilding, in its fullest sense, means leaving nature to its own devices and allowing it to take its own course …..

Sometimes, in spite of the warm weather we’ve had in early April, it seems as if spring will never come: then all of a sudden more and more plants and insects come to life.

Humans are not the only ones to be wishing for a nice summer! ….

What image does the word 'harvest' bring to mind? .....

..... we have a large population of grasshoppers and crickets in the meadow ......

A Cuckoo Bumble Bee ….. nectaring on the purple flowers of the knapweed.

On entering he churchyard on a sunny day, my senses are assaulted from two directions……

One thing that is striking is how all these different insects coexist quite peaceably alongside each other. Is it because they know they’re in a churchyard or is it ever thus??
