A short film will be shown on The One Show on BBC One over the coming weeks.
Stay tuned!

A super photo from @acorncarver.bsky.social of today’s partial solar eclipse, followed by our own Timelapse from Wild Ken Hill, which shows a rather wonderful selection of clouds!
Did you manage clear skies where you are?

One of the first butterflies on the wing in early spring is the original ‘butter-fly’, the Brimstone, and we have seen several over the weekend.
Adult Brimstone can live for over ten months which makes them the longest lived of all British butterflies.

Highlights from 45 minutes in the Beaver Woods this afternoon, where a few hardy Robins sang through the rain before the sun appeared and the rest of the birds put on a treat for the ears.
How many different birds can you hear?

Here, where the Rewilding Area meets the freshmarsh, exposed earth caused by the rootling of the pigs is peppered with footprints and probing beak holes.
Can you guess which bird might be taking advantage of the pig’s work?
Bonus point for Photo 4 !!
