Interested in environmental issues, rewilding, woodworking and music (heavy or not)
Finally visited Wistman wood (or rather looked into it from a respectful distance). Enough to see some nice examples of lychen.
Not the most spectacular temperate #rainforest but probably the best known one in this country.

Working on a commission. Hadn't worked with walnut for quite a while, I love the smell of it and its look even more.

If you're still in the area @irishrainforest.bsky.social don't miss the Skipinnish Oak

Rescued this beauty from a pond in Gloucestershire. A Giant Horntail, also known as a Giant Woodwasp or Greater Horntail (Urocerus gigas)

@rspb.bsky.social was enjoying your magazine until I got to this advert. How do you manage to lament the degradation of the natural environment and the impact this has on wildlife and at the same time do the promotion of one of the most polluting and disruptive mode of travel?

Played citizen scientist for @avonneedstrees.bsky.social yesterday, taking soil samples in the Lower Chew Valley. This will establish a baseline to measure the impact of their landscape recovery projects.

Enjoyed a very nice walk in Devon this week near Gara Rock. Some majestic #trees on the way back to East Portlemouth

Met this beauty on a walk along the Dart this afternoon. Apparently, a Violet Oil Beetle. #buglife

Had a great day yesterday planting trees with Avon Needs Trees near Bristol.
Loads of sunshine, good company and 350 more trees in the ground

From my news feed yesterday. Sums up things pretty well, doesn't it?

3 day cycling from Bath to Poole, Bournemouth and Salisbury
Enjoyed some beautiful landscapes. A balm for the mind and a tonic for the body

Planted my oaks in Tredean woods yesterday.
Looking forward to see how they get on

Grew this beauty from an acorn a couple of years ago. Looking forward to connecting it and 3 others to a mycelium network tomorrow in Tredean woods.
