This young Tawny Owl flew into our kitchen window last evening, and was unsurprisingly dazed. However after a while all was well and he flew off. What a great experience to have been so close to a wonderful bird. A family of Tawnys have been resident in a barn for many years.

Looking like a great year for apples, sloes and damsons, judging by the blossom, here on the Welsh Borders - if we don’t get a late frost.

A single 400-year-old ancient oak produces 234,000 litres of oxygen a year while soaking up carbon dioxide, and can support more than 2,000 species of bird, insect, fungus, and lichen. Nature is amazing - we need more of it, not less. Please repost if you agree 🌳
