Jackie Money @olliesmum (828) • Norwich, England 15 Feb 19

In all the places I've lived, there's almost always been woods (trees) behind me.

Fleur @Fleura (35093) • United Kingdom 22 Apr 16

These nature posts are keeping me busy; I have plenty to write about but not enough time for everything so it’s a struggle to keep up! In fact I am behind already. It’s funny how different things are more noticeable on different...

Fleur @Fleura (35093) • United Kingdom 19 Apr 16

In contrast to yesterday, walking in the same woods this morning I didn’t hear a single green woodpecker calling. I did hear a great spotted woodpecker drumming on a tree (they don’t seem to make calls but communicate by drumming...
