I was recommended to plant nasturtiums on my allotment, as the large white butterflies would lay their eggs on them, rather than my cabbages..... it worked! @manxwildlifetrust.bsky.social #merlinunwin #butterflies #caterpillarinvasion

A few highlights of my recent visit to the Calf of Man - Ring Ouzel (a personal first), Harbour Porpoise and a thoroughly relaxing quiet break from normality.

Ravens nesting near Douglas, Isle of Man - these charismatic beautiful birds have three blue eggs in their nest (so far). Hopefully they will hatch during the next few weeks.... and try and I'll share their story with you. #ravens #marinedrive

When the ground is hard with frost and ice, my allotment robin is always very pleased to see me.... and my trowel.
