I’ve blogged about the charms of the Forest Farm Nature Reserve many times before but I thought I’d share some of the highlights from last week’s wander …
Oh, and I will just add that the combination of feathers – me mostly looking upwards – and fungi – eyes down – can be quite difficult. By the end of the day, I felt like one of those nodding dog ornaments you used to see in the rear windows of cars. Still, ’twas a lovely long meandering walk!

I think it’s great to return often to the same places, it gives you a sense of continuity and I find it reassuring to see the same wildlife at the same times each year.

This is only my second Welsh spring so I’ve still got a lot to learn about what happens when. 🙂

Well done on getting a fluffed-out male great-tit. And the bluetit drew me in (I can’t resist ’em!)

Thanks, Val. There was a chilly wind blowin’ so they needed to be fluffed up. 🙂
