A small scale Rewilding project in Asturias, Spain. @lmasseyimages over on the other place. We are working with nature to provide a little oasis in an ever changing landscape. Updates, photos and random facts will appear here.
An amazing couple of days encountering an Otter locally. Both times it had a Kingfisher in tow, using the Otter to disturb smaller fish for it to catch.
Just one of the delights of living here, with these on our doorstep. You can find more about our project here: wild-finca.kit.com/04ed3accb0

The side of Wild Finca you don’t see much of. After evicting the human hunter from the land, I then had to later evict this dog. No where near it’s hunter owner.

We’ve made something a little different to buy as a gift this Christmas.
You can contribute to a piece of land at Wild Finca & get a few different bonuses when you do. A long lasting gift to nature, and to others.

Currently exploring with the kids a couple of hours from home. It’s hard to get a clear recording when 4 excitable children are in tow, but not much beats the sound of howling wolves in the mist.

European Bison in Spain. An interesting paper.
