I will truly miss the depth, contours and ever changing landscape of Co Down when I return to horizontal Cambridge this week. It’s always so hard to leave but 2nd year student life awaits after crossing the sea on the Stena Line & the long drive to Queens’ College. Bittersweet yet very exciting 🌿

Happy Autumn Equinox! I prefer the shadows to the intense glare of summer, dodging between darkness and light until winter comes: when I enter my most contented state. Surely I mustn’t be alone in this?!

On some walks you just get really, really lucky. A gorgeous Jay Feather. Incandescent joy! 🪶#birds #nature #walking

My recent children’s book has been long-listed for the 2024 UK Literacy Association Awards!! Chuffed to bits!

I haven’t seen enough #birds here yet! As it’s Friday and I am completely obsessed with birds, I’ll start by sharing a joyful Robin in full song! Share your birdy pictures! #nature

Wow. I am so delighted to receive a copy of #DrawnToChangeTheWorld by
Emma Reynolds!
This book is everything we need to inspire, educate and illuminate the next generation of activists & adults too!

It is exceptional!

I’m happiest outdoors exploring, getting respectfully close to nature to better understand it…and myself. I have always tried and will continue to do all I can to raise awareness of the threats it faces and how we can better protect our beautiful planet 🌿
