Nice to see my book has prompted a potential new spring journal. The first days of the British spring come well before the last days of the British winter, always. #naturewriting
As this has diary entries beginning 1st February, I aim to read it on the same day this year and perhaps make my own observations. Thankyou @windhovering.bsky.social .

A single 400-year-old ancient oak produces 234,000 litres of oxygen a year while soaking up carbon dioxide, and can support more than 2,000 species of bird, insect, fungus, and lichen. Nature is amazing - we need more of it, not less. Please repost if you agree 🌳
