It's another scorcher.. 🥵☀️

Be sure to put out plenty of water for birds & wildlife in your garden so they can keep cool and have enough to drink.

A massive thank you goes out to the local birdwatcher, and the farmer for giving us all the support and access needed for this massive success story.

Here's hoping the adults return to nest in 2026.

Today's #AutumnArrivalSpotlight is the Blackcap! 🍂

Once seen as summer visitors, more Blackcaps are choosing to winter here in the UK.

Listen for their sweet song brightening up gardens and woodlands even in the cooler months.
