Widening a deer track

Cutting down ne side and back up the other to row the arisings up . Trying to make it a bit easier for the rakers up.

A bit scrubby here but we can find a way through. And we did!!

Nearly at the botton by the brook. It took us 2 sessions to vut the 350 metre path don the middle of the fild. Tough going but satisfying.

Back at KIlsby Lane LWS today to finish the 350m path that bisects the field. Multi purpose to act as a reference for compartmenrts,help us get around ,manage a swathe of grassland that's onnected together and some scrub too. Looking forward t walking our paths in warmer weather . #comservation

A Green Turtle hatchling emerges from their nest and makes an epic journey - for one so small - to the Indian Ocean. Truly inspiring to see the awesome conservation work of SeaSenseNGO in action.

This is a black-and-white photograph capturing a serene and majestic moment in the African wilderness. In the foreground, an elephant stands at the edge of a waterhole. It appears to be drinking or spraying water using its trunk, which is curled upward. The elephant is large, textured, and detailed, with its ears spread out and one leg slightly lifted as if mid-step. Behind the elephant, there’s a reflective water surface mirroring the surrounding trees and sky. To the left, a prominent, leafless tree stretches its gnarled branches into the sky, creating a striking silhouette. On the far side of the waterhole, a few antelope-like animals are faintly visible among the trees, adding depth and life to the background. The overall atmosphere is tranquil and timeless, with the use of monochrome adding a classic, documentary feel to the image. The photo is credited to Gregory Rothman, dated 2

Daffodils just before blooming in front of a grave stone

Dead hedge

Moss on an old gravestone

Some before and after pics of cleaning ivy and brambles and establishing the path.

Conservation volunteering in a cemetery with #TCV. Lots of clearing & tidying and some daffodils sprouting. I do love an old cemetery. I always tell my son there is nothing to be scared of, it’s the living that we have to watch out for. #volunteering #comservation

Woman holding a tailless whip spider on a log.

Rob Weasley from Harry Potter with a CGI amblypygid on his head. Used to demonstrate the Unforgivable Curses in the Defence Against the Dark Arts class

“Bobby” - Tailless Whip Spider (aka amblypygid) will be joining me for my Girl Scout Bug Badge show tomorrow.

They are fast w/barbed pedipalps, but shy and harmless to humans.

As creepy animals often do, they are portrayed as dangerous in entertainment.
