Exciting news from Devon! Over 2,500 native trees have been planted at Bowden Pillars, marking the first step in creating a Celtic rainforest. This initiative by the Devon Wildlife Trust aims to restore a rare habitat, benefiting both wildlife and carbon storage. Kudos to the volunteers making this possible! 🌳🌿

Close encounter
This morning, I spotted a few wild black fallow #deer grazing under a small bank of trees in the forest near my home. Although I was hidden by the cover of the tree line, they could still sense my presence - ears twitching, staring in to the darkness to my location. One gave out a warning bark but had they realised I was human they would have bolted immediately.
