Quadrats, Transects and Trash Pandas

My newsletter is enjoying an encouragingly growing circulation. Nothing earth shattering, but a slow accretion. It began as a way to introduce readers to the too often overlooked wildlife in our towns and villages and gardens, plus some useful information about wildlife gardening based on our own, small scale efforts in suburbia. As Mr. Gradgrind famously said, “What we need is facts, boy. Facts.” But just facts alone can be a bit dry and dusty, so from now on, I will endeavour to occasionally add some colour as I wander down a few related rabbit holes.
